I’ve been purchasing bulbs from A.D.R. for many years. The quality is superior and the service fantastic. Chris and his family have always been prompt and accommodating. If you need it, Chris can find it! I wouldn’t shop anywhere else!

Lilium 'Rising Moon' is a stunning Orienpet hybrid featuring creamy pastel yellow blooms with broad pink edges and green throats. The pink hue extends to the back of each petal, adding depth to its elegant appearance. The large, trumpet-shaped flowers are highly fragrant, making them a standout in summer gardens. Blooming in mid to late summer, this variety grows 4 to 8 feet tall by its third year. It thrives in full sun to part shade with rich, well-drained soil and requires consistent moisture during the growing season. Hardy in USDA zones 3 to 8, it benefits from winter mulching in colder climates.

Planting: Plant bulbs in spring or fall, 6 to 8 inches deep and 8 to 12 inches apart. Set with the flat side down and the pointed tip up. These hybrids prefer to stay in place long-term, so choose a permanent spot.
Location: Full sun to light shade. In hot climates, provide afternoon shade to protect blooms and foliage.
Soil: Well-drained, fertile soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0–7.0). Enrich with compost and ensure excellent drainage—OT lilies dislike soggy roots.
Watering: Water deeply after planting. During the growing season, keep soil evenly moist but not wet. Reduce watering after flowering.
Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 4–9. In colder zones, mulch in late fall to protect emerging shoots from spring frost.
Fertilization: Apply a balanced fertilizer when shoots emerge and again at bud formation. A slow-release formula works well.
Pruning: Deadhead spent blooms to direct energy back to the bulb. Allow foliage to yellow and die back naturally before removing.
Staking: Tall stems (often 4–6 feet) may need staking in windy areas. Insert supports early to avoid damaging roots.
Propagation: Divide clumps every 3 to 5 years in fall. Replant immediately or store bulbs in a cool, dry place.
Pest & Disease: Generally pest-free. Good air circulation helps prevent fungal issues. Watch for slugs and lily beetles.
