Planting Directions
<h2>How to Plant and Care for Calla Lily Bulbs</h2> <h3>Planting Instructions</h3> <ul> <li><strong>Timing:</strong> Plant in spring after the last frost when the soil has warmed to at least 60°F.</li> <li><strong>Location:</strong> Choose a sunny to lightly shaded spot with well-draining soil. Too much shade reduces blooming.</li> <li><strong>Soil Preparation:</strong> Mix compost or well-rotted manure into the soil to ensure it's rich and loose.</li> <li><strong>Planting Depth:</strong> Dig a hole 4 inches deep. Place the bulb with the pointed end up or the side with the eyes facing upward.</li> <li><strong>Spacing:</strong> Space bulbs 4-6 inches apart to give them room to grow.</li> <li><strong>Watering:</strong> Water well after planting to settle the soil.</li> </ul> <h3>Care and Maintenance</h3> <ul> <li><strong>Watering:</strong> Keep the soil evenly moist but not soggy, especially during growth and flowering. Allow the top inch of soil to dry slightly before watering again.</li> <li><strong>Fertilizing:</strong> Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer (10-10-10) every 2-3 weeks during the growing season.</li> <li><strong>Deadheading:</strong> Remove spent blooms to encourage new flowers and tidy the plant.</li> <li><strong>Winter Care:</strong> In colder climates (zones below 8), dig up the bulbs before the first frost. Store them in a cool, dry place for replanting in spring.</li>
