Lilium Tigrinum (lancifolium) is an heirloom favorite, quite properly known as the "Tiger Lily" of "Grandma's garden" fame. It has large unscented pendant orange flowers with black spots and recurved tips. It is a notoriously vigorous grower and naturalizes easily, producing a big crop of stem "bulblets" every year and aerial bulbils (resembling black beads thickly arranged along the stem).

Once they develop rootlets, these bulbils can be easily raised to blooming size, in fact will plant themselves if allowed to drop to the ground. If you seek a rapidly-propagating lily, this one's FOR YOU! In the Orient this species is raised for its edible bulbs (delicious in veggie stir-fry dishes. Very enduring and virus-resistant.

Species lilies, also known as Tiger Lilies, are wild lilies, native to North America, Europe, and Asia. Delicate and full of charm, there are 80 - 100 accredited Species. Most species lilies do not require specialized care and will naturalize themselves very well. They are very adaptable to most soil conditions and environmental conditions, and they do quite well in warm, moist climates with fertile soil. Tiger Lily bulbs for the most part are smaller than hybrid varieties, but will produce good quality stems and a lot of blooms. Their delicate, beautiful flowers are quite showy and most will bloom for long periods compared to other lilies.

Lilies are incredibly easy to grow and few garden pests trouble them. The most natural location for lilies is on sloping ground with excellent drainage. Lilies prefer to have their blooms in the sun and their roots in the shade. Try planting them among annuals or perennials that will keep their roots cool. 

The general rule of thumb for planting spring bulbs is to plant two to three times as deep as the bulb is tall. This means that some of our larger Bulb-Zilla lily bulbs will need to be planted 6-8 inches deeps. Plant with the roots downward and the scales upward. After planting, water well two or three times. Lilies are most effective when planted in groups of three or more. Space them about a foot apart – they will spread and fill this space in no time! 

Always allow the leaves on the stalk to turn yellow and fall off as part of the lily’s natural growth process. This ensures that the bulbous underground part of the plant has gotten enough nourishment and will mean greater growth next year. Each year watch their beauty increase as they multiply! 


Shipping

Sorry, we do not ship outside the U.S. or to Hawaii due to agricultural restrictions.

We guarantee safe arrival of healthy bulbs, that varieties will be true-to-name, and will grow if planted as instructed, subject to the limitations described in our Shipping and Returns Policy.

We begin shipping our bulbs in mid-February through Spring. Despite what you may have heard, Spring planting of bulbs is not a bad thing, and in fact, there are many advantages to planting in Spring. Visit our Spring Planting page to learn more. Upon arriving, your bulbs and most of your perennials may show signs of growth such as green leaves and sprouts - this is okay and transportation during this time should not harm the plants.

All bulbs and perennials should be planted in your garden as soon as possible to ensure the best success. If you must delay planting, open the bags to permit air circulation and place them out of direct sunlight in a cool, well-ventilated room. Do not place the bulbs where they can freeze. If you have the space, storing the bulbs in the refrigerator is another excellent way to “hold them” prior to planting. If you choose this method of storing your bulbs, be sure not to store fruit with them, as this is detrimental to bulbs.

Plant outdoors when the ground is no longer frozen and the conditions have improved for your zone.

Nice fitting good quality polo shirt
Color: White, Size: X-Large
The Esabel.C Zipper Golf Shirt is a sharp, modern upgrade for your active wardrobe, especially if you’re heading to the golf course or planning a trip to Mexico. The lightweight, moisture-wicking pique fabric is incredibly breathable, ensuring you stay cool and dry even during a high-energy day at Busch Gardens. I really appreciate the quarter-zip design over traditional buttons, as it gives the shirt a sleek, athletic look that fits right in with your other high-performance fitness gear. For an X-Large, the stretch in the material provides a comfortable, relaxed fit that allows for a full range of motion during your swing or a casual afternoon out. Its crisp white finish offers a versatile, professional aesthetic that pairs perfectly with the carbon fiber sunglasses we discussed for a polished summer look.

Nice fit, cooling fabric
Color: White, Size: Large
This is a fantastic golf shirt. I'm a medium build 6'3", 42" chest and the large fits me very well with plenty of room for movement but still giving me a nice trim look. The moisture-wicking material is soft and breathable, with a small bit of stretch. I really like the zipper style and contrasting collar. It's easy to care for with machine wash and dry, and comes out wrinkle-free. This shirt is very well made and is a great value - I highly recommend it.

Breathable lightweight golf polo
Color: White, Size: Large, Color: White, Size: Large
Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much, but this polo turned out to be a really solid buy. The fabric is super lightweight and breathable, you can actually feel the airflow because of the mesh texture. I wore it on a warm day and didn’t feel all sweaty and gross. It dries pretty fast too, which is a big plus. I like the quarter-zip design a lot more than I thought I would. It gives it a slightly more modern, sporty look compared to regular polos, and you can unzip it a bit if it gets hot. The contrast trim is a nice touch without being over the top. The stretch is probably my favorite part. It moves really well, whether I’m swinging a golf club or just going about my day. Doesn’t feel stiff at all, and it keeps its shape after wearing it for hours. I’ve worn it for golf, casual outings, and even to work once, and it fits in everywhere. Easy to pair with pretty much anything. Also, super easy to take care of, no wrinkles and still looks good after washing. Overall, really comfortable, looks good, and feels like it’ll last. I’d definitely get another one in a different color. Great value for the price point.

Comfortable, Breathable, and Stylish Polo
Color: White, Size: Large, Color: White, Size: Large
I’ve been very happy with this polo shirt. The fabric feels lightweight, soft, and stretchy, making it extremely comfortable to wear throughout the day. The mesh texture provides excellent breathability, and the moisture-wicking material does a great job of keeping you cool and dry in warm weather. The quarter-zip collar gives the shirt a modern, sporty look that stands out from a traditional button polo. It also allows you to unzip it a bit for extra airflow when needed. The fit is true to size with a clean athletic cut that looks sharp without feeling too tight or restrictive. The white color is slightly see-through in bright light, so that’s something to keep in mind. It’s not overly transparent, but it can be noticeable depending on what you wear underneath. One of the things I like most is how versatile this shirt is. It works perfectly for golf, but it also looks great for casual outings, travel, or even business-casual settings. The stretchy material moves comfortably with your body and never feels stiff. The overall quality is very good. The stitching is clean, the zipper feels sturdy, and the shirt has held up well after several washes. It has not shrunk, lost its shape, or shown any fading, which is always a good sign. It also comes out of the wash looking smooth with very few wrinkles, so it’s easy to care for and convenient if you travel often. For the price, this is an excellent value. It offers a great combination of comfort, performance, and style, and it feels like a much more expensive shirt. I would definitely buy more colors.

Deep black and crisp white, this collar really pops.
Color: Black, Size: XX-Large, Color: Black, Size: XX-Large
I love this shirt. The fabric is hard to describe, but it’s very comfortable, cool, and soft. If you’re looking for something highly breathable, this is it. The quality is well made, and the zipper is great. I’m not worried about it splitting or the zipper coming off. It’s fantastic, very comfortable, and fits me really well, even though I’m over 6 feet tall. The value for the money is great. I’ve already mentioned how soft it feels, and the appearance is great too. That white collar really pops against the crisp dark black. I know the picture doesn’t capture it well and looks a bit washed out, but in person the black is very black and the white is crisp white, exactly as shown in the listing photos.
