Is it best to cut off spent flower stems or leave them? My arum lily is in a pot and has two dead heads and one live. if i cut off the dead ones will more come or is the season over now?

i would cut them off anyway if you don't want seed as that is better for the plant ~it is not wasting it's energy~yplus you may get more flowers!

Cut them off anyway, as near to the bottom of the stems as you can - saves the plant having to produce seed and looks tidier.
