Prairie/Wood Lily (Lilium philadelphicum) 10-pack of bulbs
Shipping only (free shipping). These are dormant, bare-root bulbs that ship in March (spring orders), or September/October (fall orders)
Spring: We accept pre-orders starting January 1st and ship pre-orders of dormant bulbs in March.
Fall: We accept pre-orders during summer and ship pre-orders of dormant bulbs when they are ready in September or October.
Size: 1/2” bulbs will bloom in 1 - 2 seasons.
These should be planted 1” deep immediately after receiving them (or stored in a fridge for up to 2 weeks). They can be planted outside as long as the soil is thawed. DO NOT store in a warm room, in the freezer, or in freezing temperatures.
Prairie Lily is a classic lily of woodland edges and remnant prairies. It’s also known as Wood Lily. Prairie Lily is short and humble with only a few flower stems, but it stands out among other native plants with its traditional lily flowers. It is popular with rabbits and deer, so make sure to keep it protected. Prairie Lily takes 2-4 years to bloom from seed—most of the lilies we sell are 2-3 year old plants but they probably won’t bloom until the following year or two.

Prairie/Wood Lily (Lilium philadelphicum) doesn’t like growing among tall vigorous natives; plant Prairie Lily with other short flowers and grasses that don’t spread very much. Deer like eating lilies, so be sure to protect them. There are organic deer-repellent sprays that seem to work if applied consistently every 2 weeks.
