Allow the plant to continue its lifecycle. The leaves will continue to create and store energy that the bulb will use the following spring! The will die away on their own in mid-to-late summer.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_9139-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-119861 no-lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_9139-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_9139-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_9139-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_9139-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_9139-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.theonering.net\/torwp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/IMG_9139-255x143.jpg 255w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Happy Hobbit has brought Middle-earth to its viewers&#8217; daily lives since 2012! <gwmw style=\"display:none;\"><\/gwmw>Learn more hobbity recipes, crafts, and more by watching new episodes and\/or perusing the 10+ years worth of videos on their YouTube channel. \ud83c\udf3b <strong>New episodes debut every other Saturday<\/strong>, so be sure you are subscribed to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/TORnHappyHobbit\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\"><strong>Happy Hobbit<\/strong><\/a> so that you don&#8217;t miss out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Get even more slow-living hobbit content by following Happy Hobbit on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/thehappyhobbits\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Instagram<\/strong><\/a>,<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/HappyHobbitOfficial\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Facebook<\/a><\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/happyhobbit1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Twitter<\/strong><\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@happy_hobbit_\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>TikTok<\/strong><\/a>!
