watering

Water your Calla Lily 'Rubylite Pink Ice' twice a week throughout the growing season, which is typically from March through October for most climates. Water your Calla Lily with 1 to 2 cups of water. You can wait until the soil is slightly dry before watering again, and if the soil feels wet or mushy, skip watering for that day. During particularly hot weather, you may need to water more often; in cooler months, you may need to water less often. Try to avoid overwatering by making sure the soil is never waterlogged or overly saturated, as this can cause root rot and other problems.

sunlight

Calla lilies (Zantedeschia 'Rubylite Pink Ice') need 6 to 8 hours of full sun every day for best results. They should be placed in a location that receives plenty of sun exposure in the morning or early afternoon. During the hottest part of the day (generally midday), a light shade may be beneficial. Too much shade can lead to leggy, weak stems.

pruning

Calla lily (Zantedeschia 'Rubylite Pink Ice') requires minimal pruning and should only be done for aesthetic purposes. Pruning should begin in early spring (March or April). The best practice is to remove old, battered leaves and flower stems that have wilted. If excessive growth is desired, short back the stems to about half of their length. It is important not to prune too much as this can cause an imbalance in its shape. In addition, when pruning, make sure to use scissors or pruning shears instead of pulling, as this can cause stress on the plant and damage any new emerging growth. If done correctly, pruning your Calla lily should help produce lush, healthy foliage with vibrant blooms.
