Tiny ghost lilies (Lilium asiatic "Tiny Ghost") grow to reach about 12 to 18 inches high and do not require staking as do some lily varieties. They produce burgundy, trumpet-shaped flowers that bloom during the summer and make excellent cut flowers for floral arrangements. Because tiny ghost lilies are cultivars in the Asiatic lily family, they are quite cold hardy and fairly easy to care for compared with other types of lilies.
Step 1
Plant tiny ghost lilies in soil that drains water well. Till the soil approximately 8 to 12 inches deep and mix in 3 to 4 inches of organic matter, such as leaf mold, compost or peat, before planting. This improves the drainage and adds essential nutrients to the soil. Never plant them in soil that frequently has standing water.
Step 2
Fertilize tiny ghost lilies in the spring with a slow-release fertilizer that is high in phosphorus, such as one labeled 5-10-10. Use the recommended rates listed on the label.
Step 3
Water tiny ghost lilies in the morning so the leaves have sufficient time to dry out before nightfall. This practice helps prevent fungal and foliar diseases. Water them two to three times a week for the first month after planting while they are becoming established. After that ghost lilies typically will need water only during droughts during the growing season.
Step 4
Clip off spent tiny ghost lily flowers when they fade to encourage more blooms. Clip off only the flower just beneath the bloom, using hand clippers.
Step 5
Cut down the plants in the fall when the plant dies back. Do not cut them down when the leaves are still green because tiny ghost lilies are busy photosynthesizing sunlight into energy, which they will use next year.
Step 6
Cover tiny ghost lilies with 4 to 6 inches of mulch the first winter just as the ground begins to freeze, especially in U.S. Department of Agriculture zones 4 and 5. For subsequent winters, cover them only in areas where snowfall is not dependable. Remove the mulch in the spring after the last hard frost.

一.播种
1.播种时间
这种植物生命力旺盛，对环境适应强，除冬季外，其他三季都可以进行播种。虽然播种时间随意，但是要保证一定的温度条件，一般不低于18度，不高于25度，才能保证其种子的正常生长。
2.播种方法
由于这种植物种子的外壳十分坚硬，所以在播种前需要用干净的温水稍加处理，一般浸泡一天即可。不过需要注意的是，浸泡的水不可高于40度，否则可能损伤种子。播种后，应该用一层细土清清盖在种子上，且不可多盖，并且要时时保持湿润。在夏天温度过高时，应防止烈日和暴雨的侵扰，可以将种子遮盖或者搬入室内。播种后，约半个月时间即可发芽。
二.移栽
种子发芽后，等待新苗长到15厘米左右，就应该进行移栽。移栽时应当带土，选用直径约20厘米的花盆，一盆仅能移栽一棵。盆内应当使用肥沃的菜园土作为基土，并且混入少量腐熟的肥饼。移栽后，应该对植物进行打尖处理，帮助植物生长分枝，使植物低矮茂密，改善株形。
三.管理
如果是早春时节育苗的月季石榴，一般在当年夏季6-7月份开花，并在秋天结果。如果株龄达到三年或以上，则一株可以同时开花近百朵，并结果数十个。果子重量一般在80克左右，较大的果子甚至可以达到200克，只要条件合适，果子与花会一直挂在树上，观赏效果非常好。
在冬天，这种植物只要保证温度在5-25度，秋后仍能继续开花，直到新春。南方的朋友可以让它自然过冬，北方需要移入室内。
种植时应给予充足的日照，长时间的阴天环境应当给予适当的补充，便于植物养分的存储，增加开花结果的质量。除此之外，保证水肥条件合适即可。
