Even though these are somewhat exotic flowers, the valuable instructions herein are applicable to many humbler flora.
That Crinum is gorgeous!

Interesting video, giving me ideas for my garden and greenhouse. Gorgeous flowers. Thanks for sharing

I deal with the Hippeastrum in a similar fashion as you did with the Amaryllis, but i just cut the seedpods or the spent blooms leaving the 'crown' where the flowers came out of to leave the bulb re-absorb all the energy and water in the stem :) nice video Rachel, thank you!

[@LinardBraslin]

This is very informative! I actually found myself scolding my mom at the end of last summer, because she was cutting the lilies back to about half of their length. As we know, lilies produce their leaves on their stem and after they finish flowering, those leaves still hold on and feed the bulb. Together with that, the whole stem yellows away in autumn and it happens by the bulb absorbing all the energy that has been stored in the stem. It is just illogical in my eyes to cut so much of the stem off, if you only need to take away the flowers and their pistil, so the rest would serve to feed the growth and the vegetative multiplication of the bulb.

[@naminukasful]

Great videos,thank you for sharing.Can you please advise a soil for Crinum,please?I was mixed in half multi purpose and top soil I have got only one flower of 7 bulbs.Thank you

[@GardeningatDouentza]

Good morning. I would add horticultural sand or grit or perlite to the mix as crinums like good drainage. I can't give you a precise measurement. Make sure you have them in full sun and if you are in a warm climate, leave the top quarter of the bulb exposed. In a cooler climate you may need to bury them completely to afford more winter protection. Hope this helps.

love roscoeas, iwonder if they can grow in the tropics ,since most ginger family plants came from the tropical,but i heard that this is from the temperate region yes?

[@JenniferRodriguez-oh4yj]

Hello can you do a video of collecting seeds or how to get seeds from the crinum lilies

[@GardeningatDouentza]

Thank you for the suggestion. Always happy to hear video suggestions.

How many degrees does Roscoe withstand in the garden ???

[@GardeningatDouentza]

It depends on which Roscoe's you mean. Here's a video with more information

[@somprabhasingh5205]

What is the name of bright blue color flower?

[@GardeningatDouentza]

Do you mean Agapanthus 'Queen Mum'. You would need to indicate where in the video the flower is if this isn't it. Thanks.

[@hungnmiami]

I pulled this plant up not knowing how to propagate without the bulb is there any way to root it

[@GardeningatDouentza]

Which plant?

[@GardeningatDouentza]

Perhaps it will regrow from the bulb, if you haven't done too much damage.

[@hungnmiami]

@@GardeningatDouentza crinum

[@GardeningatDouentza]

@@hungnmiami You need the bulb

[@hungnmiami]

@@GardeningatDouentza I've been looking at these little bulbous things that the flowers come out of I'm going to experiment with putting them in some water and see if anything happens summon water sun and soil and see if anything happens
