The following pointers will help increase the life of your lilies:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The first and foremost action to do re-cut the stems at an angle of 45-degrees.

Keeping them in a cool place will help them stay fresh for long.<\/li>\n<li>Although pollen are the most beautiful centerpiece to the lilies, keeping them in case of cut lilies can decrease their life span. The pollen starts eating the flowers and removing them is the best way to increase the life span. It is important that the pollen does not touch the flower even in the process of removal.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For every birthday or anniversary or just a way to show your love, lilies can be a dream come true. <strong>For the procrastinators who cannot complete the process of growing, you can always buy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fnp.com\/lilies-lp\">bouquets<\/a> and surprise your loved ones!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An ancient symbol of purity, Lilies have an intoxicating fragrance that gives it a celebratory edge.
