-
Watering Wisdom: Keep the soil consistently moist but never waterlogged. Feel the topsoil; if it's dry to the touch, it's time for a drink. During the warmer months in South Africa, you'll likely water more frequently, while in the cooler, drier winter, reduce your watering.
-
The Perfect Home: This Calla Lily thrives in well-draining soil. A good quality potting mix designed for houseplants or flowering plants works wonders.
-
Light Up Its Life: Your Wild Salmon Calla Lily adores bright, indirect light. Place it near a window where it can bask in gentle sunshine without harsh, direct rays, especially during our intense South African summer afternoons. Too much direct sun can scorch its delicate leaves.
