July 10, 2016Q.Cally lily turned yellow, burnt edges
I bought a cally lily plant in April which had 2 blooming flowers then. It was placed indoors and I watered alternative days or less with very little water. In June one flower started to look dry, then it died. Following that one leaf turned yellow and I trimmed it away after reading that it may be too wet, so I re-potted it, trimmed away the bad wet leaf, reduced my watering and placed in outside (partial sun at certain hours). That didn't help either; more leaves are turning yellow. One leaf appeared eaten away or burnt edge. What is wrong? Can I still save it?

July 12, 2016A.This could be a nutrient issue.
Have you fertilized?Also if the roots were in soggy soil it is possible they plant suffered root rot.

July 21, 2016Q.moving calla lily
I have a yellow Calla Lily in the garden but as we are moving, can I dig it up and put it in a pot to transport it? I planted the Lily last year from an indoor pot to the garden.

July 22, 2016A.Yes, you certainly can lift the plant and transport in a pot. Make sure you haven an adequate sized plant and keep the plant watered. It may have some signs of transplant stress but with water and time it should be just fine.
Here is a link with some care information.

July 22, 2016Q.calla lily color change
My white calla lilies, from last year, produced yellow calla lilies this year. Is that possible? The white ones were planted along with a salmon colored one in the same pot last year. I removed them in fall, washed them, let them dry, and put them in in basement during winter. I live in zone 4. This year, I planted them and currently, I have 6 coming up in the same pot and they are all yellow.

July 22, 2016A.I suspect the pot actually had several colors planted in it. These may have been dormant prior and now are growing.
I have had a few reports of this happening. It is common for garden centers to put 2,3 and 4 different colored bulbs in a pot.
It's a beautiful pot and appears very healthy.Was this answer useful?00 - Asked by

newalla ok 74857Q.calla lily care
My calla lily leaves are all laying down. They are still very green and healthy but the pods are so heavy they are causing them to fall and holding others down as well. Should I cut the pods off or just leave the plant alone?

Port Orange, FL not sure of the zone.Q.transferring blooming calla lily to another pot
I've transferred my calla lily, but the foliage is limp. Did I not bury the stems deep enough? It sits in front of my sliding glass door with lots of exposure to the sun. I water it about 3 times a week because it remains so limp. New shoots keep coming up and seem to remain erect, but the others are just really flopped over, actually bending the stem. I try to prop them up on the stronger shoots. Any advice? Thanks, Donna Cowart, Port Orange, FL (east coast)
