Default What do I do with paperwhites after they bloom?

Most "forced" bulbs are discarded after flowering, unless the bulbs
are expensive. If you still want to bother with it, give it bright
light and provide enough water to prevent it from shriveling until you
can plant them outdoors. Don't cut off the green leaves.
