How to take care of Schizostylis coccinea mix Kaffir Lily
Plant them just below the soil surface in an open sunny position in moisture retentive soil (don't waterlog). Add lots of organic matter to the site prior to planting. Remove dead flower heads regularly and once the flowering period is over, cut down the stems and add some peat to protect the crowns. Water well in dry weather! Plants become overcrowded very quickly so divide in spring every few years. Watch out for slugs and snails as they may damage young tender shoots.
