Cut lilies wilt quickly primarily due to a lack of water uptake, which can be caused by air bubbles forming in the stem or bacterial growth that clogs the vessels. Additionally, exposure to ethylene gas, produced by ripening fruits and certain flowers, can hasten the wilting process. Proper care, such as cutting the stems at an angle, using clean water, and keeping them away from ethylene sources, can help prolong their freshness.
