Dennis et al., It also shows that the vascular connections from the wilted flowers were still open. I'm not sure about Hippeastrum, but in Hemerocallis it has been shown that as the flower wilts, nutrients are recovered from the flower and recycled into the rest of the plant. This rather nicely justifies being too lazy to remove spent blossoms.
