After Lily failure, the first thing to do is to get rid of the remnant flowers, and prune the flower branches to keep the length of 20-30cm. When the flowers fail, the water demand is obviously reduced, and the water is watered every other time. The demand for fertilizer is relatively high, and it is applied 1-2 times a month. After the weather turns cool, remove the withered stems, store the bulbs in a cool place, and replant the next year.

I. flowers and branches

After Lily failure, leaves also turn yellow, reducing the ornamental. If there are flowers left on it, it will not only affect the beauty, but also cause rot. The first thing to do is to get rid of the debris and not hang them on the branches. The flower branch also wants to trim, but is not cuts to the bottom, needs to leave a section, reserves 20 - 30 centimeters length.

II. Water and fertilizer management

When the flowers fail, the demand for water is obviously reduced, so the frequency of watering can't be the same as before, and the state tends to be dormant. Watering every other time is OK. If there is too much water supply, the seeds in the flowers will rot. And the demand for fertilizer is relatively more, because the next year's flowering still needs to accumulate nutrients, so fertilizer can not be stopped, to maintain the frequency of 1-2 times a month, to reduce fertilization in winter.

3. Remove dead branches.

Flowers usually bloom and fail at the end of October. After a while, the weather turns cold gradually, and the flowers and branches on them will wither. At this time, this part can be cut off. The seed balls in it don't need to be dug out and stored in a cool place.
