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?
By Stan D.
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.

When I needed information about the Calla Lily, this is the site I used. Lots of useful info.

Hope this helps. Karyn
I just purchased a calla lily in a 2 quart pot. I put it into a 12 inch pot, but I can not get the lily to stand up after being planted. Some of the lily broke off. I did put water on the roots before planting. Also I put water in the pot after I planted it.

We have a lot of calla lilies, but few actually flower. What's up with that!

Why do the flowers droop over? Do they need to be cut?

I live in the Deep South and have had Calla lilies for many years that I don't have to dig up in the winter. However, this winter we had several days in a row of freezing weather. I cut back all the damage to the head of the bulb. My questions is: Will the bulbs make new leaves (I already had a lot of green growth) or should I start all over?
