How many times do lilies bloom in a year and how long do they bloom
Here is a related introduction to how many times lilies bloom in a year, how long they bloom, and the knowledge about the blooming season and time of green plants and flowers. Next, the editor will introduce to the netizens.
Lilies have always been the representatives of cut flowers, and potted lilies are gradually entering every family. Everyone is very happy to nurture a pot of fragrant flowers at home, and it is a very pleasant and fulfilling process to slowly grow from bulbs or seedlings to blooming through one's own care. Many flower friends in the backend do not understand the habits of lilies very well and often ask me questions like, "My lily has withered, how can I make it bloom again?" "How should I prune it after blooming?" "Can it bloom again next year?" Today, MOFO is here to discuss these issues with you all.
In fact, the process of lilies growing from germination to blooming and withering only happens once a year. Some people may say that lilies can bloom twice a year, which is possible, but it requires manual intervention, and this can still harm the bulbs of the lilies. Therefore, MOFO suggests that we should not go against the natural growth structure of the plant. We only need to take good care of it properly to allow it to bloom with a rich fragrance again next year.
So, how should we prune after the lily has withered? Many flower friends would directly cut the stem section, but this method is actually wrong. The correct pruning method is to directly cut off the entire flower receptacle without cutting off the entire stem. Once the entire stem and leaves are cut off, the plant cannot photosynthesize properly, thus failing to accumulate nutrients for the bulb of the lily, which will directly affect the germination rate the following year.
After finishing pruning, do not water excessively, just keep the potting soil moist. Wait until the stem withers naturally, and then cut it all off. My lilies have not been dug up and stored in the refrigerator. I just let them stay in the potting soil, water them occasionally, and make sure the potting soil is not too dry. They will grow robustly the next year, and every plant will bloom beautifully!
