Lycoris Flower Bulbs (Yellow)

About Lycoris Yellow Flower Bulbs

Lycoris aurea (golden spider lily) produces bright yellow, spider-like blooms with a dramatic tropical charm — a rare, exotic bulb that flowers when most other plants rest. Loved for balconies, terraces, and backyard gardens, and popular for festival decorations and puja flower use.

How to Plant

1. Select healthy bulbs - firm, disease-free.
2. Prepare well-draining soil mixed with compost or cocopeat.
3. Plant 2-3 inches deep, pointed side facing up.
4. Space bulbs 6-8 inches apart.
5. Water lightly after planting to settle the soil.

Light, Water & Soil

• Light: Partial to full sunlight, at least 4-6 hours daily.
• Water: Moderate during active growth; reduce as leaves dry; avoid waterlogging.
• Soil: Well-draining sandy loam - equal parts garden soil, compost, and sand.
• Temperature: Thrives between 18°C-32°C; tolerates mild winters, not heavy frost.
• Pots: Use 8-10 inch deep pots with drainage holes.

Planting Season & Blooming

Best planted late monsoon to early autumn in North India, post-monsoon in South India (avoid peak summer heat). Blooms usually appear 2-3 months after planting, and healthy bulbs multiply into offsets over time.

Care & Pruning

• Apply organic compost every 20-25 days; use a low-nitrogen fertilizer to encourage blooms.
• Remove leaves only after they turn completely yellow - green foliage nourishes the bulb, so don't cut it early.

Note: This listing ships the flower bulb only, not a blooming plant. Bloom timing shown is typical for this variety under suitable growing conditions - we don't promise a fixed date. Lycoris belongs to the Amaryllidaceae family; like other amaryllis-family bulbs, keep away from pets and children as bulbs can be toxic if ingested.
