I had them last year having purchased them at Chelsea and they were stunning.<br \/>\nI would like to know can I cut them for display indoors and still expect the bulb to do anything again next year?<br \/>\nAlso one of the pots is losing brownish leaves, is it too much water?<\/p>\n<p>Many thanks<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"hubmaster_faq_answer\">Hi there,<\/p>\n<p>Yes the browning could be due to the environment around it, i.e too much water, too hot etc.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, you can cut your lilies for indoor display. However, I would advise leaving as much stem on the bulb as possible so it feeds the bulb for the following year. I would say leave at least 50cm of stem to die back naturally. It may not flower as well the following year though.<\/p>\n<p>More information on lily care can be found <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/how-to-plant-lilies\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5792\" style=\"width: 235px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/Anouska.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5792\" class=\"wp-image-5792 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/anouska-new-375-x-500-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Anouska\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/anouska-new-375-x-500-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/anouska-new-375-x-500.jpg 375w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-5792\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Roselily Anouska<\/p><\/div>\n<p><em class=\"hubmaster_faq_editor\">The Hart Family<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi there,\u00a0Yes the browning could be due to the environment around it, i.e too much.. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/lillies-9\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":10766,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[33,24,101,122],"tags":[652,376,232],"class_list":["post-10756","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-faq","category-lily-bulbs","category-lily-care","category-roselilies","tag-652","tag-376","tag-faq"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Cutting-lilies.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10756","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10756"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10756\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10777,"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10756\/revisions\/10777"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10766"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10756"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10756"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10756"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
