much?

When I plant lilies, I use the largest pot that I can find. I think mine
are about 16 or 18 inch diameter. Some use dishpans, which are probably
cheaper than the pots that I buy. Hardy lilies spread by the rhyzomes
spreading outward. They will over grow the pot within a year or two and
need to be repotted. If they become overcrowded the blooms will be smaller
and not as prolific.
