Many flower lovers ask lilies how many times a year to bloom, and lilies only bloom once a year under natural conditions, but through human intervention, lilies can blossom twice a year, but this is done at the cost of injuring the ball. Let's take a look at the specific situation.

Flower friends buy lily bulbs, no matter when they are planted in pots or on the ground, the approximate process is that after the lilies bloom, as the temperature rises, the plants begin to wither and go into dormancy, then experience vernalization in autumn, winter and spring, and then sprout in the spring of the second year. Then blossom, and so on, this is the normal flowering process of lilies under natural conditions.

As mentioned earlier, there are some special cases in the flowering of lilies, that is, human interference. For example, some flower friends buy refrigerated lily balls in autumn, plant them and blossom again in spring next year, thinking that they bloom twice a year. In fact, this can only be regarded as once a year, because before buying refrigerated bulbs, after human intervention, if there is no intervention, they will only bloom once a year.

The general method of human intervention is to cut the stalk of the lilies after they have withered, leaving three leaves, watering relatively less than usual, dig them up 2-3 months before the next planting, put them in the refrigerator layer with some soil bags, and refrigerate them for 2-3 months. You can start a new round of planting again, but you should know that the price of doing so is extreme damage to the lily bulb.
