Frequently Asked Questions

Calla Lily Lavender Gem typically begins blooming in mid to late summer and will continue to produce its stunning flowers until the first frost. The bloom time may vary depending on the climate and growing conditions. In warmer regions, the flowering season may start earlier and last longer.

Lavender Gem is frost hardy in USDA hardiness zones 8-10. This means that within these zones, you can plant Lavender Gem earlier and they will bloom earlier. You can even leave it year-round in the ground. If you live in colder climates, you must wait with planting until the frost has passed. This is why Lavender Gem will bloom later than in warmer regions. But in both regions Lavender Gem will bloom all the way till the fall.

To encourage continuous blooming, deadhead spent flowers and remove yellowing leaves. This will allow the plant to focus its energy on producing new blooms, extending the flowering season.

If you suspect your pet has ingested any part of the plant, contact your veterinarian immediately. To protect your pets, consider placing the Lavender Gem out of their reach or in an area they cannot access.

Propagating Calla Lily Lavender Gem is typically done through division. After the blooming season, when the plant's foliage begins to die back, carefully dig up the rhizomes. Gently separate the offsets or smaller rhizomes from the main plant, ensuring each division has a healthy growth point.

Replant the divisions in well-draining soil, maintaining a depth of 4 inches and spacing of 12 inches. Water the newly planted divisions thoroughly and provide them with proper care, as mentioned in the first question, to encourage their growth and development.

Yes, Calla Lily Lavender Gem can be successfully grown indoors as a potted plant. Select a pot with drainage holes and fill it with a well-draining potting mix. Plant the bulbs 4 inches deep and 12 inches apart. Position the pot in a bright location with indirect sunlight, as direct sunlight can scorch the leaves.

Maintain consistently moist soil by watering regularly, but avoid overwatering to prevent root rot. Fertilize monthly with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer during the growing season. Monitor for signs of pests or diseases, and treat them promptly to maintain a healthy plant.
