How do I plant a lily of the valley?
Lilies of the valley are beautiful, easy-to-grow plants that can add a touch of elegance to any garden. They are hardy in USDA plant hardiness zones 2 to 9 and prefer to be planted in the fall.
To plant a lily of the valley, follow these steps:
- Choose a planting site that receives full sun to partial shade.
- Prepare the soil by digging a hole that is twice as wide as the root ball of the plant and just as deep.
- Place the lily of the valley in the hole and backfill with soil, tamping down gently to remove any air pockets.
- Water the plant deeply and regularly, especially during the first growing season.
- Fertilize the plant in the spring with a balanced fertilizer.
