Matters Needing Attention in Breeding Oil-spot Lily

When there is sufficient light, the plant will grow shorter and fatter. When there is insufficient light, the plant will be elongated as a whole, causing the plant to fall over and lose its ornamental value. But do not expose it to the sun during the hot summer, otherwise the edges of the leaves will easily be scorched, affecting the ornamental effect.

When transplanting oil-spot lily as a potted plant, do not completely bury the bulb when planting it in the new potting soil. Leave it slightly exposed, otherwise it will affect the survival rate.
