If i cut my lilies will they grow back the following year?

I have had spectacular results with my Roselilies. One in particular has 5 flower heads. If I cut them to take indoors will this compromise the bulb? I am hoping they will flower again next year.

Yes – unfortunately, it will not flower as well the next year. The flower stem and foliage needs to die back naturally to give the energy back in the bulb. If you do use them for cut flower, don’t worry they will mature again over time.
