Thank you @pauline33 @flof1952 ! 🙂They have bloomed into gorgeous flowers. And my living room smells wonderful! I'm really sad they will wilt soon. Will that be the end of this plant? How can I get new buds from these to keep this plant going ? Sorry for all the questions. I'm very new to gardening.

Hi @teamgardentags . I received this plant as a birthday gift. I was told these are pink lilies. How do I go about caring for them? How much sunlight and water would they require? I have placed them by the balcony window for now which sees the sunset. Any any advice is appreciated. Thank you.

Dead head and let it die back naturally .....the bulbs should still be ok to plant up in the autumn again and overwintered in the greenhouse just incase this variety isn't hardy Arpita @arpitavenugopal :)
