Planting
Toad lilies are perennials that thrive particularly well in gardens. Prepare a large hole in quality, loose soil. Poor soil can be improved by working in some compost and cow manure fertiliser pellets. Plant the root ball of the Toad lily at the appropriate depth in the hole, which means with the top planted just below ground level. Refill the hole with soil, press firmly and water immediately after planting. Toad lilies grow and flourish in partially sunny area with soil rich in humus and nutrients.
Toad lilies in borders
Tricyrtis hirta is a relatively late bloomer, covered in exquisite flowers from August until late October. Toad lilies are especially beautiful in borders when planted in large groups. You can make stunning combinations with other late bloomers. Try planting them next to, for example, Japanese anemones like the Anemone Hupehensis 'Praecox' and lilyturf like Liriope Muscari 'Moneymaker'.
Care
Tricyrtis hirta is an easy-to-grow perennial plant that requires minimal maintenance. Make sure the soil around the roots does not dry out because it does not tolerate dry soil very well. The Toad lily dislikes calcareous soil. Each spring, add garden compost to replenish nutrients. Once the frost has turned the foliage black, it can be cut back and then covered with a layer of fallen leaves for winter protection. In spring, cutback any leaves and soon you will see new shoots appearing above the ground.
Extra
We have selected the most beautiful colour combinations for our mix of Toad lilies. The flowers of this plant are uniquely shaped and resemble orchids, which is why this plant is also referred to as the poor man’s orchid. The flowers are star-shaped, speckled and have prominent stamens.
