My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

When to divide & replant rain lilies

18 years ago

I offered to share some of my red rain lily bulbs with a friend out of state then realized that I know nothing about lilies, bulbs, transplanting, nothing. She is in lower Florida and I am in upper Gulf Coast, Texas so climate isn't a problem. But...

When is the best time to dig them up? Do I dry them out before shipping or ship them as soon as they are out of the ground? Best way to ship?

    Do you still have red rain lily bulbs? I have the pink ones, but would love to incorporate red.
