How often should I water Lilies, and what are the signs of over-watering?

Question

I have Lilies that aren't very healthy looking. I need to know how often to water them, and what the signs of over-watering is, so I know if I am watering too much.

Answer 1

My lilies are in the ground and in partial shade and I hardly ever water them and they are great. If it was particularly hot and hasn't rained in a long time then I would water them maybe once a week, but no more than that. If they are potted then you would probably have to at least water them weekly.

Answer 2

You need to water them enough for the ground to be moist (like a sponge that you've squeezed thoroughly), but not wet like a sponge that hasn't been squeezed. Most of the time, when you over-water, you'll start to see brown leaves that have dead, "mushy" areas in them, and the entire plant may start to droop.

Answer 3

if you have planted lilies in ground no need of watering in rainy season.in pots it required little watering twice a week.when over watering is there the leaves turns pale geen to yellow and become placid.black patches are also seen in leaves which rots letter on.

Answer 4

wet mud
