    Make sure you are providing adequate water to the newly transplanted Calla Lily. It looks like it's doing pretty well. Trim away the damaged leaves that seem to be bent and broken, those will not recover.

    Here is a link about the care needed.

    Unfortunately, no. Unlike many other flowers, calla lily deadheading won’t cause the plant to create more blossoms. However, it is recommended to deadhead them for aesthetic reasons, as discussed in the following article:

    It actually looks like you may have a sport. That streak does not look like damage but rather a natural color variation in the leaves. Sports are a genetic mutation that can sometimes result in some pleasant variations in a plant. To be honest, it might be fun to see if this trait persists from year to year and you would have a unique variety.

    You may go ahead and plant out your calla lily plant after danger of frost. You should be safe in your region now.
    You will need to dig up your rhizomes in the fall and store, as they are only hardy to zones 8 thru 10.

    I would say the two are not compatible and the calla lily should be dug out and moved or pruned out. The rose blooms looking dead could also be caused by thrips or by heat stress. Yellow roses tend to be short lived anyway, so any stresses will just make it worse.

    If the temperatures are cooler they will stay closed longer. As the temperatures warm the flowers will open.
