Calla lilies are maintained in good health through regular watering. Water for a minimum of seven days, but not waterlogged. Check the soil often in hot weather and water accordingly. Feed with balanced, water-soluble plant food to promote growth every two to four weeks. Cut back feeding after flowering to avoid too much foliage.

Calla lilies bloom best in warm temperatures of 60 to 75°F. If you happen to be at a chilly spot, it would be great if you could plant them so that you can bring them indoors during the cold temperatures. If you reside in very hot temperatures, Keep plant under shade net during hot summer.

To keep it neat-appearing, take out dead flowers and wilted leaves. This is referred to as deadheading and will continue to keep the plant in bloom at all times. Cut the stems with new, sharp scissors at their base. Pruning occasionally also serves against disease and stimulates growth.

In frosty climates, plant rhizomes outside before the first frost. Dry for several days and store in a dry, cold place under newspaper or peat moss. For calla lilies indoors, reduce winter watering gradually to allow dormancy. Plant them outdoors after the weather has moderated following spring break.

Calla lilies are resistant to most insects, but spider mites and aphids may be observed from time to time. To avoid infestation, check leaves regularly and spray insecticidal soap on the infected areas. Do not overwater because it will rot the roots or cause a fungal infection.

If you’ve been taking care of these tips, you’ll have beautiful calla lilies annually. They’ll return to you with beautiful leaves and stunning blooms during summer if properly cared for.
