Tips for Growing
Calla Lilies
Transplant
Space the plants at least
12 inches (30 cm) apart.
Water
Water the plants well and keep
the soil moist throughout
the growing season.
Feed
Fertilize the flowers regularly
using a water-soluble general
plant fertilizer.
Stop watering and feeding
the plants at the end of the
growing season.
This allows the soil to dry out
and the plants to die off.
Fall Prep
Dig the calla lilies out of the ground before the first frost. Cut all remaining plant material from the tubers, then lay them in the sun to dry for a few days. Store the tubers in dry peat moss inside a paper bag. Keep them at 50 to 55 degrees Fahrenheit (10 to 13 C).
Enjoy!
