  • Description / Lilium 'Double Tiger' Tiger Lily Bulbs

    'Double Tiger', a beloved heirloom tiger lily, is a variety of exceptional grace and beauty. Its eye-catching double blooms arise in midsummer, commanding attention with their exotic good looks and bright orange petals heavily speckled with dark dots. Rising to between 60 to 72 inches tall on slender stems clad with strappy dark green leaves, the outward-facing flowers make excellent, long-lasting cut flowers for monofloral bouquets or mixed arrangements.

    'Double Tiger', or Lilium lancifolium 'Flore Pleno', commonly called tiger lily, is a winter hardy perennial in Zones 3-8, so the bulbs can be left in the ground through winter. They grow with an upright habit that looks stunning in group plantings. Perfect for beds, borders, containers, and patio pots, tiger lilies are also a favorite in cutting gardens, producing vibrant flowers and buds that continue to mature after cutting. When cutting 'Double Tiger' tiger lily flowers, remove no more than 1/3 of the stem to keep sufficient leaves to renew the bulb for the coming year.

    'Double Tiger' tiger lilies thrive in sunny locations with 6 to 8 hours of full sunlight but can tolerate partial shade. To keep their roots cool, apply a generous layer of mulch and pair them with low-growing plants that provide shade at their base. Tiger lilies perform best in organically rich, well-drained soil with consistent moisture but can adapt to average soils. Ensure the soil doesn't dry out completely or stay too wet, as both can harm the bulbs. Deadhead faded blooms to encourage fresh flowers but wait until foliage yellows before cutting back. Deer and other critters avoid tiger lilies, making them a reliable choice.

    For best results, plant 'Double Tiger' tiger lily bulbs in early spring, spaced 6-8 inches apart and 6 to 8 inches deep.
