What should I do with my calla lilies?

I am container gardening in zone 7. I planted 3 calla lily bulbs, and only one is producing. Same with one of the cannas--lots of roots, but after many weeks, that%26#039;s it. The ones that made it are flourishing. Should I dig up the others and store them until next year, wait until the end of the season, or what?

If they have roots do they also have leaves but no flowers?


Sometimes they will grow but not bloom for a year or two in a new site.





Calla%26#039;s are picky about their temperature wanting a minimum day temp of 65 and 55 degree nights. They like morning light but need afternoon protection in warmer areas.


They like a pH of 6-6.5 in a rich, organic heavy soil.


They like a steady supply of water. The tuber should always be damp. Once the leaves unfurl water uptake is greatly increased. Water should not be diminished until the plants foliage begins to fail in fall.


Calcium is needed to prevent soft rot. Because they grow in wet soil they are susceptible to fungal diseases.


Tubers need to be at least 2 inches up to 4 inches deep.
Reply:I agree with answer one. Get rid of them-- it%26#039;s possible for them to start rotting or attracting pests, which could in turn infect your healthy plants.
Reply:Asuming the care is the same, those are dead. Toss %26#039;em.
