St. Bernard's lily

St. Bernard's lilies need to be watered every 2 weeks, depending on the climate, with enough water to keep the soil moist, but not soggy. In particular, during the warmer months, the lilies need more water to help keep them growing. Water your lilies slowly and thoroughly every 7 to 14 days, depending on the climate. During this time, it is important to make sure that the lilies are getting enough water to stay healthy, but not too much water that it can rot the lily's roots. If the weather is especially hot or dry, you may want to water them more frequently.

St. Bernard's lily enjoys bright, indirect sunlight for approximately 6 to 8 hours per day. It prefers indirect sunlight that is filtered through a window or other light fixture rather than direct sunlight from the sun. If the plant receives too much direct sunlight it could burn and die. When grown indoors St. Bernard's lily should be placed near a bright window, but not within reach of direct sunlight.

Hardiness zone 11–12.

St. Bernard's lily (Chlorophytum amaniense) is a low-maintenance evergreen perennial that requires little pruning. It is best to prune this lily in spring or early summer, when the new growth appears at the base of the plant. The amount of pruning required will depend on the size and shape of the plant, as well as the desired outcome. When pruning, only remove dead or damaged foliage, and be sure to leave at least 1 bud or pair of buds above the cut for proper growth and flowering. If the shape of the plant needs to be changed, prune out the overcrowded stems, leaving only the most vibrant ones. This will ensure proper airflow and improve the health of the plant.
