Use the species-appropriate method—seed, cutting, division, bulb, tuber, or a healthy transplant—and follow the plant label for timing.

06 · Flower or harvest
Flowering and seasonal interest
100–180 days to the first expected harvest, bloom, or established display; perennials may need additional seasons to settle. Flowering shifts with planting date, temperature, day length, and cultivar. Deadhead or cut blooms when that practice suits the plant and your goal.
07 · Safety
Know the cautions before you place or use it.
- True lilies are extremely dangerous to cats; pollen, leaves, petals, and vase water can all be hazardous.
