Q.Caring And Watering

Anonymous added on August 30, 2011 | Answered

Had a calla lily as a present that advises watering twice a week and no feeding. I had it for just over a week and the leaves and flowers are rotting where they enter the soil. What am I doing wrong?

It is likely not something you have done is this is happening after only a week. It was something that happened before you got it. It sounds like it has crown or root rot. Both are caused by overwatering and would not happen in just a week. Here is information on root rot to help you with it:
