Calla Lily Plants

Q.My Calls Lilies aren’t doing very well, the blooms are green.

Zone Lincolnton, NC 28092 | Anonymous added on August 22, 2020 | Answered

I was given some potted Calla Lilies for Mother’s day. There was 1 yellow one and the rest are green and still are. They are bunched together and I put them in a bigger pot without separating them. I’m in zone 7,so I’m keeping them as a house plant. The tips are getting brown and they are outside on a covered porch so they only get morning sun. Should I separate them and how do I get them to have color?

Your lilies may not be getting enough light. Here are two articles- one that addresses the green blooms, and the other all about caring for your calla bulbs in the winter:
