Gardening Know How Questions & Answers - https://questions.gardeningknowhow.comMy lilies of the Nile have been planted for years. I live in North Florida. When we have a cold winter, I just cut them back and they come out again. There are some exposed dangling roots. Should I cover these with more dirt? Also, they don’t bloom much. What can I do to make them bloom more? They are in a part sun area. We have a sprinkler system and sandy soil. They get watered everyday in the summer.
