Pruning

Dunn's mariposa lily is characterized by its delicate, bell-shaped flowers and requires minimal pruning. For best results, prune lightly in early spring before new growth begins. Remove any dead stems to promote the plant's health. A light pruning after flowering can enhance the plant's vigor and longevity, while avoiding heavy pruning helps preserve its natural form and encourages more blooms.
