L. Campbell I bought several Isabella lillies 2 years ago and planted them in pots in the compost suggested. The first year they were a little taller than the 100cm mentioned. I left them in the pots and last year they grew to about 130-150cm and the flowers weren’t as impressive. Please can you advise what I can do to get the best show this year. Thank you.

How to plant Roselilies

Red lily beetle overwinters as adult beetles in soil,leaf litter and other sheltered places. This could be anywhere, not necessarily in the vicinity of lilies and fritillaries. They can also fly and find new hosts in the spring. They find lilies and fritillaries at least in part by volatile chemicals given off by the leaves, the adult beetles will also produce aggregation pheromones drawing more beetles to suitable host plants. Consequently, there is no advantage in attempting to treat the soil below lily plants.The beetles begin emerging on sunny days in late March and April when they seek out the foliage of host plants. Grazers Red Lily Beetle coats the leaf and while being effective against damage also benefits the plant due to its unique formula. Earlier this week I noticed 3/4 lines of plants which had been badly eaten as they started to sprout. (No or very little leaves left) I used the last of my spray to cover them. All four products in the Grazers range are in liquid form and based around the plant nutrient calcium (the CaCl form), combined with a natural adjuvant of a plant extract to improve its plant interaction. The content of individual Grazers products differ in the amounts of these co-formulants, each depending on the circumstance, so orientated towards the pests’ grazing method and the plant type.

J. Coulson These bulbs where amazing such a delight, I planted all 10 bulbs in one large container. Should I leave them in or take them out and let them dry out, protect from frost and replant next year. After a few years of flowering, you may find your Roselilyproduces less blooms, it may be time to lift your bulbs and divide them by breaking off the bulblets. All the bulbs will then need replanting. The lily beetle ( Lilioceris lilii) is the number one pest of lilies.

Space the groupings at least 3 feet apart.Roselily Bulbs should be planted as soon as possible. Ideally in the Spring but can be planted up until the Autumn. Protect your plants by spraying with Grazers Lily Beetle Spray. Simply spray onto the foliage of the lilies and fritillaries in the spring as new growth emerges and continue to spray throughout the growing season. The spray is taken up by the plant making the foliage unpalatable to the lily beetles, so the beetles and the larvae won’t feed. Supplied as a 750ml Ready to Use Spray or as a 350ml Concentrate (makes 7 litres of spray) for use in your own sprayer or to refill the RTU Spray. Adult beetles and grubs can be controlled, and plants protected, by spraying with Provanto Ultimate Bug Killer, Resolva Bug Killer or BugClear Ultra; the larvae are more susceptible than the adults. After a few years of flowering, you may find the Oriental Trumpets Lily produces less blooms, it may be time to lift your bulbs and divide them by breaking off the bulblets. All the bulbs will then need replanting.

Once you have removed all sight of the beetles, then you can start spraying ensuring to spray under the leaves as well. The spray makes the foliage taste bitter so the lily beetles won't like the taste. I would advise spraying your lilies once a week and spray again if it rains. Hope this helps.Lilies and fritillaries can tolerate some damage from this insect. However in some cases plants can be stripped of all foliage which can affect the health of the bulb. The adult beetles overwinter away from host plants and so there is no suitable treatment outside of the growing season.

Where you cannot tolerate lily beetles, manage them using the information above as your first course of action.Or you can use the "eco friendly" foliar spray Grazers G4, which reduces the feeding damage of lily beetle infestations. It also strengthens and stimulates plant growth. I've never used it, so I'd love to hear from anyone that has on how effective it is. Wow, they sound very tall. Lilies can get taller over the years once they become more mature. I would advise giving the soil a freshen up each year and try using a good multipurpose compost like John Innes No 3 which is recommended for most lilies. You can also try using a Tomato Feed on your lilies to stimulate and strengthen them. Start using it when you see signs of growth. Make up your tomato feed with half the recommended dilution (written on the instructions on the bottle) and feed once every 3 weeks. Easy to use, spray on formula • Safe to use on edible and ornamental plants • Harmless to people, pets and the planet • Strengthens and stimulates growth • Absorbed into the foliage for longer lasting control • Easy ready to use spray, no dilution necessary Congratulations on your gold medal, which was well deserved. I watched your presentation on the BBC and absolutely loved your gorgeous lilies. Unfortunately my beautiful lilies have been decimated by the wretched lily bettle. I was even thinking about getting rid of all my bulbs after experiencing this problem for the last 3 years.
