After the lilies bloom, the first thing to do is to remove the remaining flowers and trim the flower branches to a length of 20-30 cm. After the flowers bloom and fade, the water demand is significantly reduced, and watering is required every once in a while. Fertilizer requirements are relatively high and should be applied 1-2 times a month. After the weather gets cooler, remove the withered stems, store the bulbs in a cool place, and replant them the next year.

1. Broken flowers and flower branches

1. Broken flowers and flower branches

After the lilies bloom and fade, the leaves will begin to turn yellow and the ornamental value will be reduced. If the flowers remain on them, it will not only affect the appearance, but also cause rot. The first thing to do is to remove the remaining flowers that can no longer hang on the branches. The flower branches also need to be trimmed, but not to the bottom. A section needs to be left, leaving a length of 20-30 cm.

2. Water and fertilizer management

When After the flowers bloom and fail, the demand for water is significantly reduced, and the watering frequency can no longer be the same as before. The state tends to be dormant. Watering only once every once in a while is enough. If you give too much water, the bulbs inside will rot. The demand for fertilizers is relatively high, because nutrients need to be accumulated for flowering next year, so fertilizers cannot be stopped. The frequency of fertilization can be maintained at 1-2 times a month. Fertilization can be reduced in winter.

3. Remove dead branches

The flowers usually bloom and fade at the end of October. After a while, the weather gradually turns cooler and the upper flower branches will wither. At this time, this part can be cut off. The bulbs inside do not need to be dug out and should be stored in a cool place.

4. Replanting

Wait In the following spring, that is, around March, the bulbs can be dug out and replanted in flower pots.
