Easter Lily?

I was given an Easter Lily when I got a new job 2 months ago and I can't seem to get it going good. I've got it outside right now because that's where it gets the most light and am keeping it watered, but the blooms that it had weren't just white at the blooms but at the stems as well, and then they turned brown. Any tips on how to keep it going or give it a boost so that I'll see some new growth?

Easter Lily?
Easter Lilies prefer moderately moist, well-drained soil. Water the plant thoroughly when the soil surface feels dry to the touch, but avoid over-watering. If the pot is wrapped in decorative foil, be careful not to let the plant sit in trapped, standing water. For best results, remove the plant from decorative pots or covers, take it over the sink and water thoroughly until water seeps out of the pot's drain holes to completely saturate the soil. Allow the plant to air for a few minutes and discard the excess water before replacing it back into its decorative pot cover.





Also they prefer moderately cool temperatures. Ideal daytime temperatures are 60 to 65 degrees F., with slightly cooler temperatures at night. Avoid placing plants near drafts, and avoid exposure to excess heat or dry air from appliances, fireplaces, or heating ducts. The lily will thrive near a window in bright, indirect natural daylight, but avoid glaring, direct sunlight
Reply:Either plant it in the yard for blooms next year or bring it in. It will go dormant.
Reply:Easter Lillies do their thing, and then generally die back and go dormant. What is happening to your lily is perfectly normal.





If you have planted it in the ground, there is a good chance that it will return next year in the spring.
Reply:Are you sure it is an Easter lily? Actual Easter lilies are usually only available in spring, though 2 months ago you certainly might have found a wide variety of Oriental lilies and even calla lilies. Easter lilies live for a month or so, the blooms finish up, then the plant goes dormant, then they are done until the following year. If it's a peace lilie or a calla lily, those have different requirements.
Reply:You wont see any growth. Lilys are a bulb that normally bloom one time a year. It needs to be cut off, if you feel it is completed with this cycle. You can put it in the ground or leave it in the pot it is in and set it in a garage for it to go dorment till next year.
