Hi, I purchased some lily bulbs earlier this year which I potted up, because we have recently had so much rain and very strong winds I cut my lilies to enjoy in a vase. I am now worried that I have not left enough leaves on the amistad lilies to feed the bulbs, should I keep them or put them on compost tip.
Thank-you
HI Sheena
Have you left 2ft of stem? If so, you should be ok.
If you haven’t – don’t worry! I would advise giving them a tomato feed in the spring next year and a slow release fertiliser. This will help its growth. They may not be great next year but they should come back better the following year.
