Hey guys! I have never had an asiatic lily in my life so I'm dumb as a stump on the subject. I got these at the store on sale for $2.50 for 3 bulbs. I know they were left over from spring b/c they had them then. this package must have been stuck back in the storeroom & someone discovered it & put them out for sale. I knew going in that I might have mush instead of bulbs. So, here are photos & I need to know exactly what to do. I thought I would plant them in a big pot to hold them over until spring when I will put them in the garden unless you say otherwise. It's hot as he double hockey sticks here now & the sun wants to burn everything to a crisp with no rain.
Here's bulb #1
Yep, there's some green mold stuff there. The bulb feels pretty firm though.
Bulb #2 feels fairly mushy:
But I looked down into the inside & see a little pale, pale, light green.
Bulb # 3 is firmer than #2 but not as firm as#1. It looks like the flower stalk has tried to grow but died.
The box they came in
Do I soak or dip these in some kind of bleach solution before planting? How deep do I plant #1? What about #2 & #3?
Thanks!
