Now that it's winter, how should the withered lilies be managed next? Many flower enthusiasts think that after the lilies have withered, they are useless and directly throw them away, or just leave them there without watering or taking care of them. The question raised by the author is very timely, as it's exactly the season when lilies wither. I will give a detailed explanation on how to manage the lilies after they have withered.
After the lilies have faded, we can trim off all the remaining flowers, but remember not to trim off all the stems and leaves. The remaining stems and leaves can continue to photosynthesize, accumulating nutrients for the bulbs, which will help the lilies to sprout and bloom well the following year. When the stems and leaves have completely wilted, we can trim them off entirely.
In the later stage of maintenance, the pot does not need a high level of humidity, just keep it slightly moist. In winter, the bulbs do not require much water, so do not water too frequently, just make sure the soil is not overly dry. Also, as the temperature gradually drops in winter, try not to place the bulbs in an environment that is too cold. It's best to move them indoors and keep them in a temperature range of 5-10 degrees.
In the end, I also need to remind everyone that even after the lilies have withered, they still need some water and fertilizer. The purpose of continued fertilization is to take good care of the bulbs. At this stage, we can apply a thin fertilizer, mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, with less nitrogen fertilizer, allowing it to accumulate ample nutrients. When spring comes and it continues to grow, the efficiency of growth and blooming will be very high. Typed by hand without copying, the above answer is from personal experience.
