    I Bought Lots Of These Bulbs In The Spring From Lidl As They Were Very Cheap.

    They Are Just Finishing Flowering And I'm Not Really Sure Whether I Can Just Leave Them In Or If I Need To Lift Them And Store Them Until Next Spring?

    I Would Prefer To Leave Them Where They Are As I Put Them In Random Groups Between Shrubs And Amongst Some Roses With The Lilies I Bought From Lidl At Same Time. I Will Leave In The Lilies As I Normally Do.

    I Would Appreciate Some Advice As They Have Been Rally Lovely.

    All I ever do with Xipium iris is to remove the seed heads and later on the dead stems. The clumps seem to survive in our well drained soil. They may not do in a sticky clay.
