Lilium ‘La Hybrid Ercolano’ Bulbs

The stunning white blooms of the Lilium ‘La Hybrid Ercolano’ make for the perfect cut flower with their light fragrance and long life.

However the pure white petals of the ‘Ercolano’ can be extremely useful amongst summer borders or containers as a contrast to darker hues or as a focal point of elegant white. Their stunning summer display, combined with their ease to grow, perennial persistence, and wide range of applications makes them a garden favourite that you can rely on year after year.

With their upright 90-100cm stems, these lilies are perfect for planting amongst other shrubs as they thrive with their roots in shade and their heads in sun. The bulbs tend to prefer a loamy, well-drained soil and should be planted around 12cm deep and 30cm apart. ‘Ercolano’ bulbs should be planted between February and June in time to flower between July and August.

Make sure to deadhead the blooms once faded and cut the dead stems back the foliage once it begins to yellow.
