I've potted a lily for the first time this year, will it grow back next year? What do I do with it once it's finished flowering?
I just left mine in the pot. I`m sure you`re supposed to be more complicated than that though.

Here's the ones just cut down and brought in, and there are loads more still on the plant now firmly staked.

Gorgeous but I'd get the scissors on those stamens, they stain really bad ;o)

I think the stamens add to the flower, without them they wouldn't be as pretty.

I think they look better with the stamens on though and the wall behind is painted so can be re done if necessary.
