This brilliant coloration calla lily was purchased last spring on a clearance shelf at a local flower nursery. After carefully planting it, watering, and giving it plant food, the stems appeared with small leaves this spring.
Calla lilies typically bloom from spring through September. If yours are blooming later in the season there may be climatic or microclimatic conditions that have allowed them to bloom later than normal.
I have tried to find out the name of this particular calla lily. I have seen some that are close but, not like it. I would appreciate it if someone could tell me. Thank you.
This looks like a hybrid Green Goddess with some other variety. It was possibly a one-of-a-kind kind
onestly, it doesn't look like a calla lily. I've never heard of a calla lily with a flower growing inside of it in that way.
Where I am going to try to plant my calla lily is facing west and gets afternoon sun, but gets morning shade. Is that alright for them?

That should be fine. Callas are the only lilies that will grow in shade.
I ordered calla seeds. I received small bulbs some with shoots. The size is about 1/5" to 1/3". I planted them in a plastic tray each individually and covered with a dome to create a medium for growth. I don't know if I did the right thing.
I also put them in a cool dark place. I got them in small plastic bags without instructions. Please help. I am starting a garden and probably need professional help. I live in zone 8.Get the corms (I think) out of the cool dark place and into a pot filled with good soil. Place the pot outside.

We recently got a calla lily and it has small droplets on the end of it's leaves. What are they?

In your Calla Lily water is absorbed through the roots and travels up through the plant. Most of the water taken up like this is 'lost' to evaporation. What water is left behind for the plant to use is for tissue growth, etc. The evaporation action works like a pumping station which pulls water (and fertilizer and anything else dissolved in the water) up through the plant.
My calla lily blooms are not standing up straight. They are almost looking wilted. Is this a sign of not enough water or too much water? I have never had one before and am a little stumped. Please help.

Yellowing dying leaves on your calla lily can be the result of a lack of nutrients or root rot. This is a page about leaves dying on a calla lily.
The beautiful trumpet shaped flowers of the calla lily provide interest in any garden. This page contains photos of calla lilies.
