Re: Foot ball lily
I bought mine from More Green f-8 isb a few days back. planted them but no sign of growth. it is placed in semi shade,potting medium is soil + sand. and some manure. Do I need to add more chemical fertilizers like NPK (zarkhaiz), DAP, UREA, or patti ki khad to the pot to make it grow fast ?

Re: Foot ball lily
No fertilizer needed to make it bloom, the bulb contains enough energy for this, bloom size and quality depends on the health of roots.. your potting medium is good for the root growth... it is a slow starter but when it sprouts it will grow very fast... fertilize only after it finished its blooming with NPK in small quantity monthly... you just have to water and wait..!!
