1. Prune the remaining flowersAfter the lilies have faded, the remaining flowers should be removed promptly. Because the withered flowers will continue to waste nutrients, it is more beneficial to the growth of the plant to pick them off in time. In addition to picking flowers, the withered and yellow branches and leaves should also be pruned, but other leaves should be retained as much as possible because they will continue to photosynthesize and accumulate nutrients for the bulbs. 2. Water less frequentlyAfter the lilies fade, watering should be reduced appropriately. The reason is that the demand for water is not that great, and too much water will affect the development of the bulbs. The next step is to control the growth of the lily so that it can store as much nutrients as possible in the bulbs. 3. Appropriate fertilizationAfter the lilies have faded, continue to fertilize them, using the same amount as before. This is done to nourish the bulbs. Generally, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers are used as the main fertilizers, and less nitrogen fertilizer is applied. This can prevent them from continuing to grow while also providing energy for flowering next year. 4. Whether it is pillingWhen the upper branches of the lily are all dead, you need to consider the problem of pilling. The so-called bulbing is to take the bulbs out of the soil and preserve them, usually in a refrigerated state, so that there is a vernalization process. But generally speaking, lilies do not need to be pilled, especially the varieties that produce small pills. |
