The Double Tiger Lily

Every year we watch our tiger lilies with delight as they shoot out of the ground in early summer. We're looking forward to the striking blooms, but perhaps even more we're looking forward to the butterflies they attract. We now plant fennel with our tiger lilies, because as soon as the eastern swallowtails butterflies leave the tiger lilies, they head straight to the fennel and lay their eggs. For the following weeks, we watch with the delight as the eggs hatch and the caterpillars grow plumper and larger. It happens so fast, it is almost magical. Not long after that, we have a garden full of even more swallowtails! We enjoy this with single AND with double tiger lilies.

Bursting with bold color and intricate petals, the Double Tiger Lily (Lilium lancifolium 'Flore Pleno') is a striking addition to any garden. Unlike traditional tiger lilies, this variety boasts layers of ruffled orange petals splashed with deep maroon spots, creating a full, eye-catching bloom. Its strong stems and tall growth habit make it perfect for borders, cutting gardens, or focal points. Hardy and easy to grow, the Double Tiger Lily thrives in full sun to partial shade and returns year after year with minimal care.

A Story of Sharing and Connection: The Tiger Lily's Journey

One stand I found was in northeast Texas. As I drove by, I saw tiger lilies surrounding every tree at this old home. I knocked on the door and an older lady and her physically fit, middle-aged son answered. I explained what we do at the Southern Bulb Company, and the son said he would gladly share the black bulbils, (the tiny bulbs from which you can eventually grow a full sized tiger lily plant).

The gentleman, who told me he had served our country in the Army's Special Forces, walked around with me and explained his unsuccessful experience in trying to save the bulbils. Apparently, he found, they do not like to be stacked and left in a coffee can in the garage. "You can't treat them like seeds," he told me. "They'll rot on ya!" I could tell that horticulture had become his passion, and I promised him I'd plant them right away.

I thanked him, both for his military service and for his horticultural service.

Planting and Care for Your Tiger Lilies

Tiger lilies prefer a woodland setting with acidic soil and afternoon shade during their summer blooming season

Planting Time: Plant as soon as you receive the bulbs. If delayed, store them in the refrigerator.
Planting Location:
Choose a spot with about 8 hours of summer sun and well-drained soil. Don't plant during a hard freeze.

Planting Depth: Plant bulbs 2-3 times their height deep (e.g., a 2-inch bulb should be planted 4-5 inches deep).
Watering: Provide ample water as their foliage begins to appear in March and April.

Tiger Lily Multiplication: A Gardener's Delight

Once the blooms are coming to an end, knock off the bulbils and gently scratch them into the soil. With rich organic soil and some moisture, you'll have a stand of Tiger Lilies in just a few years

Attracting Pollinators and Enhancing Your Garden

Tiger lilies are a magnet for pollinators like hummingbirds, bees, and butterflies, adding life and movement to your garden. Combine them with companion plants for year-round interest:

Great Little Frother.
Color: Silver, Color: Silver
I really like this this little frother. What I noticed first is that it comes with a cover for the frothing arm. That’s very practical if you travel with it. I have traveled with a frother before and I put it in a toothpaste box, not much protection there. I use this 2 to 4 times a day. I can come pretty close to creating a Starbucks flat white at home. That saves $$$. The next thing I really like is that I can remove the arm for cleaning. If the arm does not come off clean up is a bit tricky. How does it work? Great! It has one speed, Fast. The power button is on the base of the handle so I just had to adjust the way I hold the frother when I turn it on. One thing, make sure the froth head is all the way into the liquid when you start it, lol. This little machine whips up a thick froth fast. It comes with 2 frothing heads, a three spring version as well as a standard one spring. There is a lot of plastic, but it doesn’t look or feel cheap. Actually I think it helps keep the weight down. I travel some and I appreciate when things are light. Over all, this is really nice it’s light portable and works great. I highly recommend this product. I was given this product for review and I am so glad they choose to contact me. I have been frothing milk for my coffee for the last few years. This has now became my go to frother.

Great Frother
Color: Silver
The best frother I’ve owned! Love that the whisk is removable for washing, the end is flat so it stands up on its own and it’s pretty powerful.

Almost right but connector sucks
Color: Silver
I much prefer a frother with swappable batteries and always use rechargeable AAA's and never disposable one's. The power button is in a comfortable spot as opposed to everyone else's odd and very uncomfortable side placement. Placing the power button on the side make you have to twist your entire arm to have your thumb facing down to be able to press anything whereas this one is right on top and can hold it like a simple joystick with no twisting of my arm. However, these plastic attachment points crack waaay too easily. I've already bought 3 of these and this is the part that breaks on all of them. I have designed and printed new attachments but the installation of them can damage the motor if I'm not careful. The motor also looses torque after only a few months. The windings need to be improved. Even though I really hate the plastic attachment, the button on top and the ability for it to stand up on its own without some stupid fiddly stand are the ONLY reasons I come back to this design. The moment someone makes a fully metal attachment (like I've seen) a power button on top and self standing, I'll throw this one away. Updated April 2025: I am about to buy my 4th one since 2019. This is NOT an endorsement for it, I just haven't found anything design wise that's better. The motor in these are short lived and they give out with no warning. Ergonomically this design make more sense than a side mounted button or switch, but I'm still dropping a star for the fact I've had to buy 4 of these darn things in such a short time Update: Oct 2025 I just bought this replacement in April and this things motor is already dead. I'm done with this item/seller. Just an overly cheap product. Product no longer worthy of even 2 stars

Great frother for travel!
Color: Silver
Great frother, easy to use and I like that its self contained which makes it easy to take along on travel. I've bought 3 of these, they work well and last long.

Strong, Durable, and SIMPLE Frother
Color: Gray
Excellent frother! It is ‘SIMPLE’, yet very efficient blending. I love that it included a set of long-lasting batteries. The motor on this frother is strong and works great. The item itself is of durable quality. I have had mine for about 9 months and use it daily for my coffee and other drinks throughout my week, and the battery is still running. I even give it a spin after washing the frother spinner/coil. This helps to dry it thoroughly, as the motor is strong enough to blow away any excess water - and still - the batteries are functioning well. The price is just right…very affordable compared to other brands. I’m very pleased with this purchase and absolutely love that it also came with a stand. I display it on my counter everyday. There are 3 solid and Simple colors to choose from, making this an easier shopping experience. Excellent choice for gifting!
