The soil should be rich and well-drained, and the plants will appreciate protection from mid-day sun. A little lime and an occasional light feeding with compost or bulb fertilizer will improve their performance. The bulbs should be planted a little earlier than most, preferably by mid-September. Expect new growth in early fall.</span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIpyrKxtvwES2Gx35AmTFBef0YCal2nkI_1eb9Bpi6flWBi3TSgi7nt2VP66XbnxY8K05o7a-iXHXKgRB1A7FMeCw5KOxGrMf6mBfuYx7EbXVS9O-e0Lu_rRFIkMl33gptbk3HT0VwxDU/s1600/Madonna+lily+flowers.+(3).jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="284" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhIpyrKxtvwES2Gx35AmTFBef0YCal2nkI_1eb9Bpi6flWBi3TSgi7nt2VP66XbnxY8K05o7a-iXHXKgRB1A7FMeCw5KOxGrMf6mBfuYx7EbXVS9O-e0Lu_rRFIkMl33gptbk3HT0VwxDU/s320/Madonna+lily+flowers.+(3).jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> The lily probably reached western Europe via Phoenician traders, then quickly naturalized throughout much of the continent.
