    When the flowers die off, do I leave them or have to cut them off? Also, I've got the plant in a large plant pot ... seems to be doing well, is it okay to leave it in there or am I better off planting it out ... and if so, what conditions do they like?

    Many thanks!

    Hello Winnie I,ve got 3 bunches of Arum lilys growing and from Easter onwards when they are in flower i always cut back the flower hard on the stem when they start to go brown. As for condidtions Arums can tolerate pretty much anything you throw at them.

    Good luck
