We had a windy day yesterday and my Stargazer was in bloom, until the wind blew the blooms away. Where do i cut? So another bloom will show up?

Such is life in the garden................ But cut it just under where the flower was is where I do it. Leaves the whole stem to put back into the bulb as nutrient... Nope, it won't grow back Not until next year! Gosh, mine are juuustttttt starting to grow up tall! Won't be a bit for mine!!!

I was told that in the fall you can burn it to the ground and it will come up in the spring, is that wise? Or should you just cut it down?

I feel like a kid with a new toy, this is my first experience with this delicate bulb. I am a transplanted Northerner and am delighted with all the new flowers that are available inspite of the heat/humidity in Houston, TX. It took one bulb about 6 months in a 3 gallon pot on a protected patio before it sent up a stem to bloom. The bloom brings a smile to my face each morning before I go to work!
