# I took these from a friend that was over these lilies and was going…

_Posted by Raquel on 2024-08-20_

I took these from a friend that was over these lilies and was going to throw them away. Can I save them? I’m thinking of putting them back in soil but my main question is will they come back? Any and all advice is welcome!

You can save them ! Give it humidity and change the water weekly! When the flowers start to die, cut at the bottom of the stem! Good luck! 🍀

Would I be able to change them back to soil instead? I’m scared I won’t be able to keep them happy in water

Well I can’t really tell you because mine have only been in water…

Ok well then let’s see how I do with keeping them in water lol!
