Zantedeschia 'Mango'

Calla lilies (Zantedeschia 'Mango') are a stunning addition to any garden or home. This brightly colored flower has a striking yellow and orange combination petal with a deep yellow throat. Its heart-shaped foliage is a rich, deep green and nicely complements its bright, cheerful blossoms. Calla lilies are a surprisingly low maintenance flower that grows in both wet and dry soils with moderate to full sun exposure. To encourage more blooming, make sure to provide plenty of water and fertilizer. Repotting may be required as they can quickly outgrow their containers. With some basic care, this beautiful flower will bring beauty and warmth to any space.

watering

To ensure optimal health and growth, water Calla Lily (Zantedeschia 'Mango') regularly and consistently. Plants should be watered every 7-10 days or when the soil feels dry to the touch. To avoid overwatering, avoid leaving standing water in the pot. Water the plant until water runs out of the drainage holes, then discard the excess. To help retain moisture, mulch the soil surface.

sunlight

Calla Lilies (Zantedeschia 'Mango') require a good amount of sunlight to thrive, but not too much or too little. They prefer bright, indirect sunlight for the majority of the day—approximately 4 to 6 hours. For best results, place the Calla Lily near a south- or east-facing window, which will allow it to receive bright, indirect light throughout the day.

pruning

Calla Lilies should be pruned in the early spring or summer when the leaves start appearing again. Dead leaves should be removed, along with any old flower stems. Pruning encourages the plant to put out more leaves and flowers. Make sure to use clean, sharp pruning shears so you don't damage the plant. Cut the stems back to within 2 inches of the ground or to the desired length. Pruning can also help reduce the likelihood of disease and pests, and it can help keep the plant looking tidy. If the rhizomes have become crowded, you can divide them and separate them into different pots or containers.
