I live in an apartment building with virtually now flowers growing. I'm not a gardener at all, but thought I would plant some lily bulbs. The 22 bulbs I have all have stems growing, ranging from 2 inches to 8 inches.
The ones with 4 inches of stem or more I suppose I could plant them with an inch or so of stem showing.
But, I'm wondering about the bulbs with shorter stems. Should I plant them with an inch of stem showing, or should I plant them under the surface and allow the stem to come up by itself? Most, if not all of the stems have green tops on them.
Thanks,
Harry
