Nari 'Altari'

Lilium hybrid 'Altari'

Growth Characteristics

Altari lilies (Lilium hybrid 'Altari') are bulbous plants belonging to the genus Lilium, characterized by blooming bright and showy flowers primarily in the summer. They typically grow to a height of 90 to 120 cm and tend to grow upright. While Altari lilies prefer sunlight, they can also thrive in partial shade.

Propagation Methods

Altari lilies are primarily propagated by bulbs. Autumn is the appropriate time to plant bulbs; plant them 10 cm deep in the soil, leaving sufficient space to allow the roots to develop well. Additionally, propagation by dividing bulbs is more common than propagation by seeds.

Cultivation Methods
- Soil: Fertile, well-drained soil is most suitable.
- Watering: Water when the soil dries out, but avoid overwatering.
- Fertilizer: Apply appropriate amounts of compound fertilizer in spring and summer to aid growth.
- Sunlight: They tolerate both bright sunlight and partial shade well. Use in the Garden

Because the Japanese Red Altaria produces showy flowers, it is excellent for use as a focal point in the garden. In particular, it works well as a border plant or background plant, and can create beautiful harmony when placed among flowers of various colors.

Important Pests and Diseases & Control Methods
- Diseases: Fungal diseases such as leaf blight may occur, so inspect the plants periodically and use fungicides if they appear.
- Pests: Small pests such as aphids and mites may occur; to control them, regular disinfection and the use of natural insecticides are recommended.

You can grow healthy Japanese Red Altaria with regular care and the provision of a suitable environment.
