You can cut off the flower stems. But don’t cut off the leaves, they need to stay on until they die off naturally. They are serving a purpose right now giving the bulbs nutrients to come back strong and even better next year! 🪴❤️

They don’t they take a few years to build up the energy to bloom again. You will have to wait patiently. Right now they don’t have enough energy stored in their bulbs since they already bloomed. They just need rest now. 😢

They won’t bloom next year but the greenery will come back.
