Lilium 'Matrix', commonly known as the Matrix Asiatic Lily, is a compact, early-blooming perennial renowned for its vibrant red-orange flowers. This dwarf variety is ideal for containers, borders, and small gardens, offering a splash of color in early summer. Its sturdy stems and low-maintenance nature make it a favorite among gardeners.

Planting & Growing Conditions

  • Hardiness Zone: 3-9 (extremely winter-hardy and suitable for various climates)
  • Mature Size: 12-14 inches tall, 12-15 inches wide
  • Growth Rate: Fast
  • Sunlight Needs:
    • Full sun to partial shade (requires at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal blooms)
  • Soil Requirements:
    • Prefers moist, well-drained, porous growing medium
    • Slightly acidic pH: 5.8-6.4
    • Avoid heavy, waterlogged soils to prevent bulb rot
  • Spacing: 12-15 inches apart for proper air circulation

Watering & Maintenance

  • Young Plants (First Year):
    • Water sparingly until shoots emerge; increase watering as plants grow
  • Established Plants:
    • Maintain evenly moist soil, allowing it to dry slightly between waterings
    • Avoid standing water, as lilies do not tolerate wet feet
  • Mulching:
    • Apply a 2-3 inch layer of mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds

Fertilizing

  • First Year: No fertilizer needed at planting if soil is rich in organic matter
  • Mature Plants:
    • Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer or incorporate time-release fertilizers into the growing medium prior to planting
    • Avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers, which can promote excessive leafy growth at the expense of blooms

Pruning & Maintenance

  • Best Time to Prune: After flowering
  • How to Prune:
    • Remove spent flowers to prevent seed formation and redirect energy to the bulb
    • Allow foliage to die back naturally; do not remove green leaves, as they contribute to bulb nourishment
    • Cut back dead stalks in late fall or early spring to maintain garden tidiness

Chronic illness rep
Format: Kindle
One of the things I love about Bella Matthews is that they are short and spicy, but long enough to develop the characters and have a overall plot with some subplots...that are little breadcrumbs for future books. However, this book didnt seem long enough to convey the enormity of cystic fibrosis. The pacing bounced around and I just didnt have the opportunity to really connect with the characters. I have read EVERY book by this author and LOVE how all of her books are interconnected. The family tree at the beginning is helpful to keep track of who is related to who.

Lucky and Lexie Will Break and Heal Your Heart
Format: Kindle
Oh my heart… Lucky and Lexie’s story was everything I hoped for and more. Sweet Temptation, the first book in Bella Matthews’ new Love & Legacy series, is a heartfelt and emotional return to Kroydon Hills. From the very first chapter, I was pulled back into a world filled with witty banter, swoony moments, and characters that feel real and memorable. Lexie Sinclair has spent the last year in Paris pursuing her culinary dreams. Living with Cystic Fibrosis, she has accepted that love isn’t something she can allow herself. She doesn’t want anyone to experience the pain of losing her, so she keeps her heart guarded. Her determination to protect herself and others broke my heart more than once. Lucky Beneventi is the star quarterback, a known flirt, and her brother’s best friend. Lexie has always been his sweetest temptation, and now that they’re adults and living under the same roof, their connection is impossible to ignore. Their chemistry has been building since childhood, and when they finally give in, it’s intense and emotional. Bella Matthews blends humor, tenderness, and heat beautifully, making every moment between them feel earned. Lucky’s quiet protectiveness and devotion made me fall in love with his character. He stands by Lexie even when she tries to push him away. Lexie’s journey is raw, honest, and deeply emotional. Her strength and vulnerability are written with care, and there were several moments that genuinely moved me. Bella Matthews also delivers wonderful family dynamics. Seeing familiar Kroydon Hills characters as parents added a layer of nostalgia that fans will love. Sweet Temptation is the perfect mix of heart, humor, and heat. It’s emotional, romantic, and hard to put down. This story made me laugh, swoon, and tear up more than once. Bella Matthews has delivered a beautiful romance that lingers long after the final page.

"It's a promise wrapped in a threat, and she doesn’t know it" ARC
Format: Kindle
I can always count on Bella Matthew’s books to have found family, a strong FMC, delicious spice and to make me laugh & cry in the same chapter. Sweet Temptation is no exception! Lexie & Lucky have grown up together. Lucky plays pro-football & lives with Lexie’s brother Lincoln. Lexie is back in town, needs a place to stay, insert our favorite forced proximity trope! Lexie doesn't want a relationship, she firmly believes that's selfish because she has cystic fibrosis and doesn’t want to cause her loved ones pain someday. She’s also the first and only girl Lucky hasn’t tried to chase… There’s wonderful banter & tension and then finally we get “one night lucky.. It's a promise wrapped in a threat, and she doesn’t know it” I loved Lexie’s mom & Lucky’s sister for standing up for their relationship & dropping the truth bombs those around them needed to hear. Lucky’s mom for telling him, grand gestures don’t mean sh*t, when you take away her right to choose what she wants. If you love banter, group texts, spice, football romance, forced proximity -- definitely recommend this book! Can't wait to read more of this second gen.

Such a sweet story!
Format: Paperback
Ok, I’m lowkey obsessed with Lucky and Lexie! Why did I wait so long to read this?! The banter between them and all the siblings and friends had me dying! 😂 The yearning and pining these two have for each other 🥰 Lucky knew what he wanted and I loved when he finally decided to go for it! Lexie was such a warrior! I really related to her character. Having a chronic illness isn’t easy and you always wonder how it’s truly affecting those you love. The way Lucky came in and showed her that he wanted to be with her no matter what had my heart melting. I didn’t expect to feel So many emotions with this one! Cannot wait to continue the series!!

I Love Luciano “Lucky” Beneventi
Format: Kindle
Another 5 star read from this amazing author! Man do I love going back to Kroydon Hills! I love these characters so much! Since day one with Nat and Ryan! And to continue reading about their kids! It’s the best. This book was heartbreaking but in a good way. Being with some one with a sickness is not easy. It really comes down to “in sickness and in health” and lucky was there every step of the way. Loving someone for the rest of your life.
