Q.How And When To Divide Giant Calla Lily

Zone London | Anonymous added on June 5, 2021 | Answered

My white giant calla lily is now so big flowers and leaves at the sides can’t get to the sun. It started flowering in March and has produced 50 + flowers. It’s now June and less flowers are being produced and it’s starting to wilt. Im not sure if that’s due to the heaviness of the plant now. How do I divide it and when do I do this? can I do it now – or do I wait. The lily is green all year round.

It is best to divide them after flowering and when the leaves dry or die back, depending on your climate. Here is how:
