I want to pot up some lily bulbs and have them bloom the end of June. How long after planting do the blooms appear? Should I plant now or delay planting?

It's best to plant them in the fall so you may not get blooms this year. You could so go ahead and plant them now and see. If you do plant them now, it will not hurt for next year.

I received this as a gift on Mothers Day. and they were in bloom at that time. I think I'll plant them soon and hope it will blossom again this year. They may have been forced for Mothers Day. Thank you for the tips. This was helpful. Thank you.

You need to hold the bulbs correctly (temp., not exposed to ethylene gas, ex. found in fruit in your fridge, etc.) and they have to be a lily that forces well...but the short answer is 63 days from planting. Do not over water after planting.

Most asiatics are mid to late summer bloomers. If you plant them right now, they might bloom by the end of June, but I wouldn't count on it.

positioned some sawdust in a ventilated bag and positioned your bulbs interior the bag. Then positioned the bag on your refrigerator or in a funky spot - storage, shed, yet somehwere the place moisture won't influence the bulbs. (it extremely is why you decide on some sawdust in there - it is going to help take up small amouts of moisture that could reason the bulbs to get moldy for the time of storage.)
