1. Note on breeding in summer

Calla lilies grow particularly fast in summer and require a little more nutrients at this time. Generally, decomposed fertilizer should be applied to them once every half a month. If fertilization is not timely, it will easily lead to incomplete development of the plant's stems, causing the green leaves to turn yellow or wither.

2. Notes on breeding in winter

Calla lilies are not cold-resistant, so they need to be transplanted indoors in winter and given 4 hours of light every day. This will allow the calla lilies to grow and develop better, but they do not need to be fertilized in winter, otherwise the roots will be burned.
