Growing Lilies From Seed: Tips and Tricks
The Mid America Regional Lily Society (MARLS) is honored that Dennis Fitzgibbons has agreed to do an educational presentation about one of his passions, Growing Lilies From Seed.
The 2010 Spring Educational Session will focus on why grow Lilies from seed, types of seed germination and preparation, also types of containers and best growing mixes. Dennis will then cover the different types of lights, fungicides, and how often to water. Lastly he will discuss how to get to blooming size bulbs in 12 months.
After the break, Fred Winterowd will demonstrate the finer points of potting lily bulbs, and each meeting attendee can expect to leave with a lily bulb potted up and ready to go.
This seminar runs from 10 am to NOON in the Beaumont Room at the Missouri Botanical Garden on March 13th. A brief society business meeting begins at 9:30am. This event is free and open to the public.
