Hi, my crinum lilies are about the same size as these philodendrons. Should the crinum lilies be treated the same way? In other words, do I need to do more than remove the mush?
Hi. I have a large, established iris. I know you’re supposed to cut it back in the fall but the leaves went from green to brownish and the flowers stems are limp and turning an ugly yellow. Should I cut it all back and wait till next year for blooms?
