Flowers should be removed when petals begin to fade, so
they will not go to seed. If seed pods are allowed to
remain, they will draw off the food needed to nourish your
bulbs for next year's growth. All petals should be removed
from the blooming area after they have fallen. Even where
bulbs have been naturalized in a lawn, leaves should not be
cut until they turn yellow and whither naturally. While
they are still green, the leaves serve as a source of
nourishment to the bulbs.
