When the Calla lily plant height reaches 20 to 30 cm, you can apply fertilizer once. Dig furrows between rows, then mix urea and compound fertilizer evenly and spread it in the furrows, cover it with soil, and water it immediately. You can apply fertilizer again when the Calla lily is in bud. If the soil contains organic fertilizer, do not apply urea this time. Apply high-quality compound fertilizer containing phosphorus and potassium, and use the same method as the second fertilization.
