calla lily

Water calla lilies regularly and evenly to keep their soil constantly moist. During the growing season (March–October), water them every 5-7 days and ensure that the soil is damp to the touch. During the dormant season (November–February), water them every 2-4 weeks. Keep in mind that the plants may need more frequent watering depending on their environment, such as if they’re in a dryer environment or if they’re in direct sunlight. Additionally, if the leaves start to wilt or the soil feels dry to the touch, it is time to water the lily.

Calla lilies (Zantedeschia rehmannii) do best when they receive at least 6-8 hours of indirect sunlight per day. They should not be placed in direct, full sun for extended periods of time as the intense light can lead to scorching of the foliage. During the hottest parts of the day, they should be provided with some additional shade in order to prevent any damage from the sun's intensity. Additionally, during the winter months when the sun is much lower in the sky, be sure to relocate your calla lily so that it receives plenty of indirect sunlight.

The best time for pruning a calla lily (Zantedeschia rehmannii) is in late winter or early spring, when the plant is coming out of its dormant period. When pruning a calla lily, aim to remove any dead or unhealthy foliage or stems. Up to 1-third of the stems and foliage can be removed at a time without causing too much harm to the plant. It is important to make sure all pruned material is discarded away from the plant and any remaining plants in the area, in order to prevent any potential of disease transfer. If possible, wear gloves while pruning to protect against harmful sap exposure.
