I bought some callas in pots this year too. Mine are still growing, and I plan on leaving the pots outside until the foliage dies. That allows them to build up as much energy for blooming for next year as they can. That may be after frost. That is when I usually dig my callas & bring them in. I have had callas for several years, and in our zone they will come back if planted in a protected area close the the south side of your house foundation and mulched a bit. But I certainly don't risk new plants for the first winter. When I dig my callas, I just store them in a paper sack in a cool dry place, then replant in spring. They multiply better when you leave them in the ground year round, but they multiply well when you dig too. I have read that callas stop blooming after a few years, but I have had some white ones for maybe 10 years that still bloom well. Not as well this year with drought though.

Return to the Lily Forum main page, scroll up to the large print that says Lily Forum and read the next two lines. That will point you in the right direction.
