watering
Water Asiatic lilies regularly. Give the plants a deep soak once a week in the early morning. Make sure to water the soil, not the leaves. A slow drip or trickle of water is best. You should also avoid wetting the foliage as this can cause diseases of the plant. Reduce watering throughout the winter months when the plant is dormant. Keep an eye on the moisture level in the soil, being careful not to overwater. Stick your finger into the soil, and if it feels moist, refrain from watering. If you are unsure, wait a day or 2 and check again.
sunlight
Asiatic lily (Lilium 'Tiny Pearl') prefers full sun, with a minimum of 6 hours of direct sunlight each day. However, it's best to give this plant some shade from mid-day sun in areas with hot climates. During the hottest parts of the summer, it's recommended that this lily receive some afternoon shade to help prevent wilting. Overall, the plant should receive a full day of direct sunlight in the spring and fall, and partial shade in the summer.
pruning
Asiatic lily (Lilium 'Tiny Pearl') should be pruned in Spring after blooming. Prune back each main stem to a height of about 2-thirds of its original length. This will encourage the plant to produce more stalks and a heavier bloom for the following season. Remove any dead or damaged leaves and stems as you are pruning. Re-fertilize the lily after pruning for optimum health.
