How do you grow Gloriosa Lilies?

Question:I've just bought 5 Gloriosa Lily bulbs from a garden show. There are no growing instructions and I was wondering how best to treat these bulbs?

Answers:
Hi Chris.

I believe you have Gloriosa Rothschildiana - the Glory Lilly, which is a greenhouse exotic. Sorry it's a bit out of my experience but if you do a search on the above plant and add "cultivation" to the search then you should get some answers.

Here's one that I found:

Hope that helps a bit. They are fabulous plants and should do well in a conservatory or greenhouse. Hope you have every success and get to enjoy them to the full!
