Wow! Lots of interesting stuff here that I read over. So last night I trimmed the dead stalk and then made my last post while I planted the bulb. I left the one stalk and was planning on trimming it this morning if it was suggested, but I didn't see the posts and got so caught up in packing for the trip I just left on...
The stalk that I didn't trim opened up and is blooming, but now I'm on the other coast of Florida. I hope it's alright by the time I get back. Soil is nice and moist.
