I live in British Columbia, we are still having very cold nights, below
freezing. My neighbor lives here only in spring, summer and fall. Goes
south for the winter. Left four potted Calla Lilies for me to take care
of. I quickly found that many advise digging the bulbs out and storing
them in something like sawdust. My neighbor seemed to think the thing to
do was put them in these pots. I was going to keep them on my bedroom
floor, as the room is mostly closed off in winter, but it got too cold,
and friends told me that locals just bring them in the house and let the
sit. Okay, I did this, but put them on the floor to keep them cool as
possible. Then, oh dear, on about February 15 one started sprouting.
Then another. And going like gangbusters. I'm afraid they will bloom so
fast my neighbor won't have any blooms for the summer. I put the
unsprouted two back in the bedroom. What do you Calla Lily fans think? I
never had one before in my life.
