My calla lily flowers have started to droop and I just assumed they were dying off. I'm thrilled to find out from your video that I can get seeds! Thanks for such an informative video. I really enjoyed it.
Ours die back each year and when spring comes they wake back up. it took a couple of years for them to start making seeds but now we get free plants each and every year. Thank you so much for watching!
my first year with a pot of calla lilies and three flowers are going to seed! I'm in zone 8b so I think I'll have more FREE lilies next year. Love your garden!!!!
I'm in zone 6B/7A and I keep mines in pots. When it starts to get cold around November and the leaves start to die off, I bring all the pots inside and put them in a dark place or cover them so they're dark. I don't water them, just let them rest until around April when leaves start to poke up through the soil. By the 2nd week in May, I've brought them outside again. Been doing this for about 5 years and they just bloom like crazy! I just learned that if you take the flowers off when they start to "die", you can get more blooms. Also, mine are in almost full sun and they bloom like crazy. I'm wondering if you need to divide that pot because those plants look like they're very crowded. I've never saved seeds before but I think I'm going to start doing that. Love your channel! BTW
Ooh. Thank you for pointing this out. I had just realized that calla love both my sunny and my shade gardens. Definitely going to be on the lookout for the seedheads and the seedlings from now on AND going to try dividing some of the plants that are overtaking their spots.
You are so welcome. You will not believe the amount of calla lilies that we have had popping up. I potted them up like normal and gave lots of them away. I love how they keep producing. Thank you so much for watching!
Calla Lilies are such beautiful flowers! Because I live in Vancouver, and our winter can get quite harsh therefor we have to dig the bulbs up annually once they die back during fall and replant once first frost has passed... But I guess its worth the effort since they make beautiful and perfect cut flowers!
Ahh this is what happened to mine after they died back last year. I happened to plant my original in the ground but it struggled (I’m in zone 9b and planted it in full sun) so after a while I took them back out and back into a pot. I thought I had killed them. Fast forward to a couple days ago as I was going to reuse old soil I came across the rhizome. I completely forgot about it. To my surprise it has eyes that are sprouting and now I’m starting to also see new shoots in the area I had initially planted it in-ground. I’m gonna have to dig them out in hopes they will survive these hot temps we are having already. 😍
I am in zone 9 and yes my calla lily do the same thing!! You can collect the seed and plant them, but I think I like your plan better!! I do have very old very large white callas that my grandmother and mother planted over 50 years ago. I have never seen the few flowers make seed however. I think it is because they are in an area that is too shaded and honestly I don't know the last time they were fed, so I need to take care of that!
Yes good luck! I can tell you that it took a couple of years and then it started making seeds and has not stopped since. I love collecting the free plants. Thank you so much for watching!
Thank you sooooo much for this video. We had our first flower last year and it lasted for a few months then the flower started to wilt and it had seeds so I secured the flower to a dried stalk not knowing it was meant to drop to eventually drop the seeds. We live in zone 7 in NY and I had planted the seeds about two inches deeper as the squirrels would dig em up eventho I feed squirrels... I decided to leave em in ground over the winter and so far this summer we now have two flowers of different colors. What slow release fertilizer do you recommend? Thanks again its super appreciated 😊 Eddie J.
Yay! You are so welcome. This plant is very rewarding. It is dropping so many seeds for us. At the beginning of spring when I see them emerge from the soil we use a 10-10-10 slow release fertilizer since they are in our front garden. If you have them in your vegetable garden then I love using plant tone. It is an organic slow release fertilizer. Thank you so much for watching!
Zone 9b here and very appreciative of your great tips! I don’t remember planting Calla Lillies but they appeared in my garden this year, lol. I will definitely be looking for some new plants to dig up.
Hello!!!! Thank you so much I absolutely love sharing everything about home and garden. Maybe calla lilies us to be in that spot and nature took it course and they are coming up. Seems like you are enjoying FREE plants as well. Thank you so much for watching!
Tysm for this very detailed video 🙌🏽❤️❤️ I live in Southern CA and was gifted a small 8" pot of the classic white calla lily's. So far I only have 3 flowers with big stiff bulbs. They haven't dropped yet, but my question is how do I collect those seeds when and if they drop if they're in a pot? I live in an apt so I plan on leaving it in a pot, repotting it over time
Normally after they have bloomed and dried I will collect the seed pod and store it. Evidently I have not been doing this soon enough and I have so many volunteers popping up this season. I hope this helps and thank you so much for watching!
I’m a newbie ; just got three cali lily’s ; pink; orange; yellow . So far they are house plants but we don’t get much sun inside the house . Not sure if I should plant them outside . Someone said I could put them pot right in the ground and dig up in the fall . I live in Nova Scotia; Canada so we have good weather April till October / Nov . But now It’s already June and we had frost warning the other day ! Love your ideas !
WOW 😬a frost warning. I can remember when my husband was in Ft. Drum they would have snow for a while. Although I have them outside they don't get direct sun all day and we have even more new plants popping up everywhere. I love the colors that you are growing. Thank you so much for watching!
Just ran across your video. Is the free plant still available. I just got a purple one for my mother's passing in March and i love them. Would like another if you still have free ones.❤
We have moved from our old garden but hopefully your plant will begin to drop seeds so you can dig them up and have new plants. Sorry to hear of your mom's passing. Thank you so much for watching!
I have a pot of a deep burgundy red Calla Lilly on the platform of my steps outside it does get full sun and it also gets a break with the shade. I am noticing that they are developing seeds and they're just hanging over the pot. They cannot drop onto the ground. When should I collect them? Can I cut the whole stem or not?
Some dried on the plant and I collected the seeds but some also dropped seeds and I had little plants popping up everywhere. Once they got big enough I potted them up . I hope this helps and thank you for watching!
Those are the seeds in them. If I don't catch them in time (like now) they drop their seeds and new plants are created. Thank you so much for watching!
Just received a yellow calla lily for my birthday. The flowers are dying back and stems they are on seem to be drooping. First of all, I had to re-pot because the pot was way too small. I'm in zone 4 so will be taking the plant inside come fall. My question: Because it is so young, should I just snip the dying flowers? Or snip the stem they are on as well?
I don't snip anything. I let the plant die back naturally. Once everything is dried up, I clean around the plant and when they begin to sprout the next year, I give them a slow release fertilizer and let them start to grow. Hope this helps and thank you so much for watching!
I love the calla lilies and staying in a warmer climate does come with some advantages but believe me I do complain in the summer😂 Thank you so much for watching!
I pruned my cala lillies already but what I will do because I have to white bushes that are huge is divide them and spread them around the yard in the fall after the green foliage dies down. It's good to do so every 3 to 5 years so the plant isn't over loaded in the same spot if theirs limited space. I have to tey the seeding method next year and refuse to cut back dying blooms to keep the plant looking nice I just can't help myself sometimes.
If you want free Calla Lilies just come to Callafornia, this plant which is native to South Africa grows like a weed here and it is classified as an invasive species, you can find it growing on the sides of roads or beaches or wherever and it's not illegal to remove invasive species from public land. By the way they are called Zantedeschias by botanists and I like that name much more than Calla Lily because so many people here in California think they are called that because they're from here. They do not need garden soil and can grow in rock or sand which is why they are taking over roadsides, because they are native to rocky and sandy areas in South Africa. And you can do something cool, because they are from the southern hemisphere you can put seeds in the fridge right now and take them out in a month, grow them in your house, and get flowers in December when it's the middle of summer in South Africa. You can actually do this trick with almost all South African plants and some from South America, try it and impress your friends.
Calla lily, is a beautiful plant...but its so expensive here in the philippines..but i want to have cally lily...can you help me to have calla lily ma'am?
Yes cally lilies are very beautiful plants. Do you know someone that has one that could divide some of theirs and give you some to grow. They definitely multiply. Thanks so much for watching!
God said "Genesis 1:29 Then God said, “Behold, I have given you every plant yielding seed that is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree which has fruit yielding seed; it shall be food for you.
Thanks so much for watching! Comment below and let us know if you grow calla lilies and do you save the seeds?

I have not noticed them seeding, but they do hang down. But they are getting bigger around. They are in my garden.
Yes they are beautiful. I love to see them bloom every year. Thank you so much for watching!
Definitely check later on to see if you see a seed pod growing inside. I know the yellow one and the pink ones are pretty. Thanks again for watching!

do the seeds flower the same color as the parent flower? or what diversity do you usually get?
All of the ones that I have dug up I have given them away and never really asked did they flower the same color. Sorry I could not be more helpful.
