The blooms on my lily are gone, but the little tenticles are still there, do I leave them or cut them off?


Question:

Answers:
You cut them. Just cut off the tops so that the stalks can get energy (food) from the sun to store in the bulb and rebloom next year. Do not remove the stalks until they turn yellow.


leave them if you want a seed pod to form
It depends on what you want, if you want the plant to multilpy byt eh bulbs cut them off, if you want seed pods leave them on. If it don't matter cut them off it looks nicer.
