watering
In general, Lilium 'Touching' plants should be watered generously, about once a week. During the peak growing season, you may need to water more frequently, every 3-4 days, if the soil is particularly dry or the weather is hot. In the winter, your watering can be reduced to about every 2 weeks. Make sure to check the soil moisture as a guide. If the soil feels dry to the touch, it is time to water.
sunlight
The orienpet lily (Lilium 'Touching') needs at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight per day to thrive, although it can tolerate partial shade. For best results, it is recommended to plant the orienpet lily in a location that receives morning sun, and shelter it from afternoon sunlight in the summer months. This will allow the flowers to receive the ideal amount of sun to promote optimal growth and flowering.
pruning
Orienpet lilies (Lilium 'Touching') should be pruned in spring after the flowering season is finished. During this time, the large stem and foliage should be cut back to the ground. For a neat and tidy appearance, the remaining foliage and stems should be cut back by about 1-third. This encourages healthier growth and more blooms. Additionally, after 2 to 3 years, old stems should be removed at the soil level. This should be done in the spring or autumn season to help promote healthy and new growth.
