Feeding and Watering Tips for Calla lilies?
Calla lilies are hardy, popular garden plants that need their own special care. Calla lilies grow well in many zones, but they are originally from tropical marshlands. Therefore, they need frequent watering and do well in partial shade. Also, they need bi-weekly feeding either through liquid fertilizer in water or compost in soil during periods of very active blooming. If growing calla lilies in a pot, however, they do not need as much fertilizer. Calla lilies reproduce by making more bulbs, so gardeners need to dig up the extra bulbs and either dispose of them or give them to others.

When to separate calla lily bulbs?
Calla rhizomes need to be split after they've finished blooming and leaves turn yellow or die off. The rhizome needs a chance to dry out before being split. For the colored variety, be very careful not to let it sit in moisture or they may rot! Take them out of the soil and set them in a dark, dry place for a few days. Then, pry the rhizomes apart. For the larger, white calla (prefers moist soil), it won't rot. I would still recommend letting it dry out a bit before separating the bulbs.
