watering
Lilies (Lilium 'Barbaresco') should be watered deeply and evenly. In general, water the plant when the soil is dry 1-2 inches below the surface. In the spring and summer months water every 5-7 days, increasing frequency in hotter weather. In the winter months, lilies should be watered every 10-14 days, depending on how dry the weather is. Make sure to not let the soil remain completely dry for too long, as this can affect the plant's overall growth. Be sure to check the soil frequently to ensure your lilies stay hydrated and healthy.
sunlight
Lily (Lilium 'Barbaresco') plants thrive in full sun exposure between 6 - 8 hours per day. A certain amount of partial shade is acceptable but the more direct sunlight the lilies receive, the more vibrant and colorful the blooms will be. To ensure that the lilies do not reach an excessive amount of heat and become stressed or sun burned, provide a source of shade during the hottest parts of the day. It is also important to note that too much direct sunlight can also damage the lily’s delicate blooms, so take care not to expose them to blazing hot noonday sun. Early and late day sun is best to ensure blooms are strong and colorful.
pruning
Lily (Lilium 'Barbaresco') should be pruned annually in late winter or early spring, before new growth appears. Prune out any dead, damaged or diseased stems and deadhead faded flowers. Cut off the flowering stems at the base of the plant, but leave the foliage. Pruning should be done sparingly; removing no more than ⅓ of the stems at 1 time. This will ensure a healthy and attractive lily for the upcoming growing season.
