Raising Calla needs to ensure moderate light. The environment can neither be dark nor exposed to long-term sun. It is usually allowed to receive light for 3-5 hours a day. The planted soil should be neutral or acidic, and an appropriate amount of base fertilizer should be added. Because it likes to be wet, it should be watered frequently, but don't pour water in the leaf sheath, otherwise it will rot. Fertilization is usually once every two weeks, and topdressing should be appropriate after budding. After flowering, the plant needs to be trimmed to prolong the next flowering period.

1、 How

1. Light: Calla needs moderate light in the process of life. It is usually raised in a slightly shaded environment. However, in its flowering period, it is necessary to ensure sufficient light, so that the Buddha flame bud will appear yellow and white, otherwise it will turn green, affecting its ornamental value. Provide 3-5 hours of light per day to prevent the plant from growing in vain

2. Soil: like most plants, Calla likes loose and fertile soil, which is generally neutral or acidic. Usually, two parts of pond soil are mixed with one part of rotten leaf soil, and an appropriate amount of calcium superphosphate is added as the base fertilizer, which can provide a good growth environment and contribute to the development of plants

3. Watering: Calla likes a humid climate. During its growth period, it must be watered frequently to keep the soil moist. It should be noted that when watering, do not pour water into the leaf sheath, otherwise it will easily lead to decay. In addition, there can be no ponding, which is not conducive to the breathing of the root

4. Fertilization: the growth of Calla is inseparable from sufficient nutrients. Therefore, it is necessary to apply fertilizer regularly. The fertilizer mostly uses rotten bean cake water or chemical fertilizer, usually once every two weeks. After the plant buds, it is necessary to increase the amount of fertilizer, which can prolong the flowering period, make the plant flowers big and colorful, and bloom continuously all year round

2、 Post flowering treatment

After flowering, Calla needs to be trimmed. Cutting off the dead and old branches can prolong the next flowering period. After one month of flower senescence, the plant will grow new buds. After that, the buds should be properly wiped to avoid too much nutrient consumption, which is not conducive to subsequent growth
