Calla lily?

I have a calla lily plant, and I am growing it indoors. Recently all of the yellow blossoms died, and I was told this was normal due to the "dormant" period the plant is going through. However, now the leaves are beginning to turn yellow. What should I be doing to keep my plant alive? I water it regularly, and give it as much sun as I can. Is it just too cold for it to survive right now? (I live in Montana)

Calla lily?
When calla lilies go dormant, this means that not only do the blooms stop, but the leaves die back as well. This is normal in the life cycle of the plant. Store the rhizome (thick root similar to a bulb or a tuber, like an Easter lily or a dahlia) in a cool dark place until spring, and then replant it. It will come back even more beautiful than before.
Reply:Just cut it all the way back %26amp; look forward to a healthy plant after its dormancy
Reply:Calla Lilys grow in Mediterranean climates (like the Monterrey coast in California), they do not like the cold. You may need to move it to a warmer place inside your house, if it is near a window then move it away from the window because windows have drafts.
Reply:Normal growth pattern for bulbs. Flowers die back, leaves nourish the bulb til dormant period then die back. You can leave it in the pot if you like, reduce watering, in the spring it will sprout again.

Reply:Keep it away from drafts and when U water it use warm water-and maybe during the dormant period cut back on too much water but do slip it a little fertilizer every now and again.... Good Luck!
Reply:this is also a tropical plant and needs to be kept away from cold drafts.
