Did i do this right? Calla Lily - November 25th, 2004 at 08:05 AM
Hi!
Okie dokie, this is my first winter with my calla Lily. I decided to raise it in a pot, and keep it indoors for the most part, and it wasn't getting enough sun so it growed pretty leggy. Then i had it next to an open window so it would get cold and less light as the fall turned into winter so i could winterize it. Then when all the stems stopped growing new stems, and fell over, and started changing color, i cut them all off, and checked for extra bulbs under the soil. I found 4, and separated them from the maine one so it would concentrate all its energy on the main one. Then i covered em all up, let em sit outside overnight in the rain a bit, and now its in my celler.
Did i do this right? What could i have done better?
Thanks ^.^
