Q.When and how do I harvest the seed pods from my calla lilies? Almost all of my blooms have them.

Do the green seed pods change color? How will I know when they’re ready to be harvested? How do I store them? I haven’t grown them before so I’m a total rookie!

Do not harvest the seed pods till they are completely dry. Store them in an airtight jar in a cool location for three months to satisfy the dormancy period. Seeds collected in fall can be planted in spring.

Here is how to grow them:
