If calla lilies do not have enough light during flowering, it is easy to cause the bud to turn green or not to bloom.

5. Fertilization: apply fertilizer every 20 days during the growing period of calla lilies, select rotten bean cake water, and apply thin fertilizer frequently in the peak growing season, once every 10 days. When fertilizing, do not pour fertilizer and water from the leaf sheath, so as not to cause calla to rot and die. Less fertilization may cause leaves yellowing and malnutrition, while too much fertilizer can easily cause calla yellow leaves.
