About Orange Lily
Orange Lily is a super popular houseplant 🌿 that needs regular watering to thrive. They do best in long-lasting, direct light ☀️ and should be less than 1 foot from a window.

How to fertilize Orange Lily
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Orange Lily after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Might be dying? I’m a new plant mom who desperately wants a ton of plants and lacks the geeen thumb, lol! The label on these says to water when dry below surface. I’m just wondering if too much sunlight can harm them also? I have since brought the flowers in to hopefully start looking lively again! I’ll take any advice I can get. :)
