Gardener's Tip
To keep the pure white petals of 'Snowy Mountain' looking flawless, try to water the plant at the base rather than over the flowers, as water droplets can occasionally cause spotting in intense midday sun. Because Oriental lilies prefer slightly acidic soil, mixing some ericaceous compost into the planting hole will give them the perfect environment to thrive. If you find the fragrance too strong for a small indoor space, simply removing the pollen-heavy anthers with a tissue will slightly reduce the scent intensity and prevent any staining on fabrics.
