Special care: Keep plants watered regularly and keep soil well drained. Plants in bloom need a lot of water and prefer a well-lit location out of direct sunlight. Remove the yellow anthers to prevent staining of white petals. To reflower the next season, continue to water it until foliage matures, then plant outside in late spring.
Lilies can be very toxic to cats, so please keep away from your kittys. They are not however toxic to other animals or people.

Did you know that the proper name for Shamrocks is Oxalis. They do not only come in Green with white flowers. This year we have other varieties as well. Red Shamrocks have pinks or white blossoms and the Iron Cross have a black center on the green leaves. They are the most delicate plant but will flower yearly with correct care.
