Product Description

Football Lily ? A Bold Bloom for Your Garden

Bright and Beautiful Flowers
The Football Lily, also known as Scadoxus multiflorus, is a stunning flowering plant that brings joy and color to any space. Its large, round flower head looks like a ball made of tiny red or orange flowers, which is how it got its fun name. Each bloom can have over a hundred little flowers packed tightly together, creating a firework-like display.

A Plant That Stands Out
This plant grows from a bulb and produces tall green stalks with broad leaves. When it blooms, the flower head sits on top of the stalk like a crown. The bright flowers often appear in summer and last for a few weeks. Even after the flowers fade, the plant stays attractive with its lush green leaves.

Perfect for Pots or Garden Beds
Football Lilies can grow well in pots, flower beds, or even in shady corners of your garden. They like warm weather and grow best in loose, well-draining soil. While they enjoy sunlight, they also do fine in partial shade. If you live in a place with cold winters, you can grow them in pots and bring them indoors when it gets chilly.

Easy to Care For
These lilies are simple to care for. They don?t need much watering?just enough to keep the soil slightly moist. Overwatering should be avoided. Once they finish blooming, allow the leaves to stay until they naturally turn yellow. This helps the bulb store energy for next year?s flowers.

A Fun Surprise Every Year
One of the joys of growing Football Lilies is waiting for that first flower to pop up. Since they bloom only once a year, the sight of their bright, round heads is always exciting. With the right care, the bulbs will keep blooming year after year.

A Touch of Nature?s Charm
Add a Football Lily to your collection if you love bold flowers and easy gardening. Its bright look and low-maintenance care make it a perfect choice for both new and experienced plant lovers.
