Pruning: Trim off spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming, and remove any dead or damaged foliage. In colder regions, you can cut back the foliage in late fall to protect the plant during winter.

Fertilization: Feed the White Lily of the Nile with a balanced, all-purpose fertilizer in the early spring and mid-summer to promote healthy growth and abundant blooms.

Winter Protection: In zones 5-10, where winter temperatures can be harsh, it's essential to provide winter protection. Apply a thick layer of mulch around the base of the plant in late fall to insulate the roots and protect them from freezing temperatures.


For planting the White Lily of the Nile, choose a location with well-draining soil and adequate sunlight. In cooler climates, it's best to plant in spring after the threat of frost has passed. In warmer regions, you can plant it during fall or winter. Dig a hole that accommodates the plant's root ball, and place it at the same level as the surrounding soil. Water thoroughly after planting. If planting in a pot, ensure it has drainage holes and use a good-quality potting mix. Keep the plant in a sunny spot, receiving at least 6 hours of sunlight daily, but provide partial shade in extremely hot conditions. Regularly water the plant, allowing the soil to dry slightly between watering sessions.

The White Lily of the Nile thrives in full sun to partial shade. It requires at least 6 hours of sunlight daily to bloom beautifully. Water the plant regularly, aiming for consistent moisture in the soil. During the hot summer months, increase watering frequency to keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid overwatering to prevent waterlogged conditions.
