Tree lillies

Hi all! Quick question, does anyone know, does it take a few years for new/young tree Lilly bulbs to grow strong and tall and bloom? We got a tree Lilly bulb from someone a few years ago that bloomed that year. Even though it's in a bucket and pretty much nothing has been done to it over the years it gets bigger and bigger…

Hi all!

We got a tree Lilly bulb from someone a few years ago that bloomed that year. Even though it's in a bucket and pretty much nothing has been done to it over the years it gets bigger and bigger every year. It has a few bulbs now, some 2 or 3 years old but they are still very small. I've them planted in individual pots as I wanted to be able to bring them when we moved house. I'll be starting at the garden in the next few weeks and wondering if they are worth keeping or not.
