1. Lily
Many flower enthusiasts think that lilies are planted in autumn, but in fact, lilies are more suitable for spring planting. The lily bulbs available now (C-S) have been refrigerated and can be planted all year round. However, from the perspective of lily growth, planting lilies in spring is better, which is conducive to lily growth and flowering.
Lily bulbs should be planted a little deeper to prevent them from falling over when flowering.

Dahlia is a type of bulb flower that has always been popular. Dahlia comes in many varieties, with flowers as large as a hand, very bright and beautiful. Dahlia is most suitable for planting in spring. After flowering in spring, it usually goes into a brief dormancy in summer and then sprouts and flowers again in autumn.

Nevertheless, Red Spider Lily is indeed very beautiful. Whether to plant it is a matter of personal preference.
