Calla Lilies

Should I cut back the Calla Lilies now that they have finished blooming? I have divided them periodically but never lifted them during the winter months. They are very healthy and beautiful when in bloom. I have seen some gardens that have cut them back, but I would want to know if that’s wise, before I attempt it.

Let the leaves naturally die back to feed the bulbs.

Here are a couple of great links for you.
