What do i do with lily bulbs once flowering is over?

I just leave mine in the ground. It doesn't seem


to harm them in anyway, they still flower every


year.


But I think it depends on where you live, if you


get severe frost and heavy snow falls, the


bulbs would benifit by digging up and wrapping


in hessian. Then they would be fine to replant


again.

best to leave 'em in the groud, or if you dig 'em up make sure they are clean and dry b4 you store 'em
Reply:Don't dig them up. If you must, re[lant in pots and set the pots in a trench in your garden and cover with soil up to the rim of the pot. They will overwinter either way very well. Less stress on the plannt if you just leave them in the ground.
Reply:In your shed keep them from frost as well
