    Deadheading your Tiger Lily will help the additional buds open fully, though the plant will only produce flowers once each season.

    Use a very thin cane and gently tie the stem to it to staighten. Be careful not to pierce the blub when pushing the cane into the soil.

    You can store the bulbs indoors until the danger of frost has past this spring and pot directly into the garden.
    You can also start the bulbs indoors if you would like.
    Place the bulbs in a pot with with a good peat based potting mix and good drainage.
    Fill the pot half way, place the bulbs in the pot-root side down, and cover the bulbs with potting mix.
    The planting depth is typically 2 to 3 times the depth of the bulb.

    Water and maintain an even moisture level, do not allow to dry out.
    Place the pots in a full sun location with temperatures between 50 to 75 degrees F.
    A grow light may be needed to be added to give the lilies 6 to 8 hours of sunlight.
    When the weather warms in the spring you can move the pots outdoors. The bulbs can be left in pots or removed and saved for the following year.
    You can also go ahead and transplant them directly into the ground.

    There are many species and varieties of Lilium and Hemerocallis that are called "Tiger lily," but generally, you cannot propagate any of them using just a stem unless you have special lab equipment and conditions to do so. For us regular gardeners you'll need to either have the bulb, the bulbils (tiny dark-colored chickpea-like forms growing up and down the main stem), or seeds to start a new lily plant.

    Neem Oil should take care of most pests and is safe for people, pets and bees.
