    November is not too late - you're probably right on target. Follow these instructions and you'll have a good chance of success. The important thing is to dry the bulbs thoroughly, and check on them now and then through the winter, to remove any bulbs that start to rot. https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/bulbs/calla-lily/calla-lily-winter-care.htm

    Yellow leaves can be caused by a number of things. Typically in houseplants, it is either underwatering or overwatering. Water when the top of the soil feels dry, but do not let the soil dry out all the way. This article will have some other causes for yellow leaves: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/plant-problems/environmental/plant-leaves-turn-yellow.htm

    Have you been watering the plants? In order to go dormant, not only do they require darkness, but must also remain dry. Perhaps these articles will help you: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/bulbs/calla-lily/calla-lily-winter-care.htm

    It sounds like your calla lilly may be suffering from root rot from being exposed to frost and it looks to be severe. Since root rot attacks the roots and is present in the soil, cutting the plant down to ground level will not really resolve the problem. Ideally, plants with root rot should be removed and destroyed.
