No ,sorry not this season. It might though, get another stalk with flowers. Mine sometimes get another after the first one withers. Don't cut them off yet though, they need the green to make nutrients in the bulb part of the plant, so they can Bloom again in the spring. Let them die back on their own, Bye

Not usually. The stalk has one huge bloom that you cut when the lower flowers are open (say 4 or 5 of them) and then the upper ones will open. Can last a week or more in the vase, if you take off the lower ones as they die.
Now there are glads that have one or two secondary smaller stalks coming from the lower part of the big leafy bit. These are lesser in size. But my plants generally only have one decent one, and then poof - that's it!

No; since they are bulb plants, one is all you get each year. Pulling the dead blossoms ("dead-heading") will help the plant in terms of vigor, however, since energy/nutrients are not expended setting seed. Once all the buds on a stalk have bloomed, you can remove the stalk; the leaves provide all the nutrients that the bulb needs to store up food for the next bloom period in the spring/summer.
