Of the many popular flowers found in summer flower gardens, lilies are perhaps one of the most versatile. There are many colors, patterns, and even shapes available, so you're sure to find a lily that fits your garden. One popular lily variety is the stargazer lily, which has large, striking flowers. In outdoor gardens, they make for a stunning centerpiece, but did you know you can also grow them indoors? They even make fantastic cut flowers! This guide will explain everything you need to know about caring for your stargazer lilies, whether indoors or out.
Indoor care

Stargazer lilies, like other lily varieties, can grow indoors with proper care. Indoor care for stargazer lilies begins with choosing the correct container. It needs to be deep and have sufficient drainage holes. Avoid shallow pots or those without drainage holes, such as ceramic pots. Likewise, you must use well-draining soil to avoid overwatering. Stargazer lilies enjoy moist soil, but they don’t tolerate standing water. Soil that is rich in organic matter is ideal.

These cool-season annuals would be a great addition to your garden

Brighten up your garden with these cool-season flowers

There’s no better way to liven up a landscape than with a colorful display of flowers. They brighten the mood, draw attention toward (or away from) critical parts of the yard, and attract hummingbirds and other pollinators. During fall and winter, though, most plants go dormant, leaving patches of brown or gray where there should be lovely colors. Cool-season annuals are a great way to fix this, adding color back to your garden even during winter! Want to add cool-season annuals to your garden? Here's what you need to know!
What are annual flowers?

Garden flowers fall into one of three categories: annuals, biennials, or perennials. Perennials come back year after year. Biennials grow to maturity in their first year and then produce flowers and seed in the second season before they die. Annual flowers complete their entire life cycle in a single growing season. Though they're short lived plants, annuals offer the brightest, most diverse, and longest-lasting color.
