#advice-lily Wait for it all to die down. The leaves provide energy to the bulb for next year's flowers. If leaving in the ground apply fertiliser and water in well.

@loopylauz ......I deadhead then let them die back naturally. Mine are all in pots so I can place them out of sight when they've finished flowering :)

Dead head the stalk where the flowers have been and take down to the top leaves otherwise you are feeding the seed heads and not the bulb you want the plant to feed the bulb for a better flush next yr ☺
