Lilium pomponium Cultivation | Propagation | General Uses Cultivation Notes: Prefers an open free-draining humus-rich loamy soil with its roots in the shade and its head in the sun[200]. Prefers calcareous soils but tolerates acid conditions[47]. Succeeds in ordinary garden soil[1]. Prefers a warm sunny position[47, 90, 143], requiring a hot flowering and ripening season if it is to grow well in following years[200]. Plant the bulbs 12 - 15cm deep[143]. Early to mid autumn is the best time to plant out the bulbs in cool temperate areas, in warmer areas they can be planted out as late as late autumn[200]. A very ornamental plant[1]. The plant should be protected against rabbits and slugs in early spring. If the shoot tip is eaten out the bulb will not grow in that year and will lose vigour[200].
