QUESTION:
Someone bought me a (plant) asiflorum Lily in a plastic container with holes for my b-day. Do I plant the flower in the ground with the plastic container?

Dear Danielle,
You asked a question about a present you received of a potted Asiflorum Lily and how to take care of it.
As luck would have it you received a super present!! The Asiflorum Lily can be found in Lily catalogues under LA Hybrids. They’re a cross between an Asiatic and an Eastern Lily. These are very hardy bulbs that tolerate temperatures to -40 degrees (Zones 3-8) and can be planted in your home garden. We’re in Zone 5, so it’s really safe to plant these here in Northern Illinois. They will come back year to year.
You are one lucky lady to have gotten a gift like this!
Happy Gardening,
April M.
