1, buy potted plants
Calla lily itself has poor cold tolerance, and it is usually planted after the warm weather in spring. You can buy some saplings directly for cultivation, or you can buy potted plants directly for maintenance. The most economical way is to buy some calla lily bulbs directly to cultivate them.
2. Bulb planting
Calla lily is usually propagated by bulbs. You can buy some healthy and full bulbs without any damage, and then cultivate them after the weather turns cold in autumn, and then you can reproduce with bulbs.
3, leaf pruning
Calla lily usually blooms from April to June. After the flowers wither, the residual flowers should be cut off and the leaves remain. They will continue to carry out photosynthesis, and then cut off the leaves after they wither in midsummer.
4. Temperature management
Calla lily likes warm and humid environment, and it is best to put it in a place where it can get enough sunshine. Not cold-tolerant, it must be moved indoors for maintenance in winter. The indoor temperature should be 15 to 20 degrees Celsius, and the lowest temperature should not be lower than 10 degrees Celsius, which will affect its normal growth and flowering. During normal maintenance, it is necessary to keep the soil moist enough, and often spray water on the leaves to make them absorb enough water.
5. Lighting requirements
Calla lily likes sunshine best, especially when it grows vigorously and is ready to bloom. Once the light is insufficient, it will affect the quality of flowering, resulting in the failure of flower buds to bloom.
6. Matters needing attention
Calla lily likes a well-ventilated environment, especially in winter. Moving indoors is often poorly ventilated and prone to pests. For example, scale insects, if the number of pests is small, can be cleaned with a soft brush, if the number is too large, can only be cured by spraying; There is also a kind of soot disease, which also happens because it is airtight. At the early stage of the disease, you can wipe the leaves with clear water to clean up the soot and black powder. If the condition is serious, dilute Tobezin or carbendazim solution should be sprayed for prevention.
