Calla Lily Outdoor Culture and Zebra Plant Tip Burn

Calla Lily (Zantedeschia) Garden Care

• Plant after soil warms; full sun to part shade.
• Weekly water if no rain; rich soil with bone meal at planting.
• After frost: dig rhizomes, store dry cool (45–50°F).
• Colored types go dormant—leaves shrivel. Don't panic; keep barely moist.

Zebra Plant (Aphelandra) Brown Tips

Caused by:

• Overwatering or poor drainage.
• Excess fertilizer (salt burn).

Correction

1. Water weekly indoors; ensure pot drains.
2. Stop fertilizing 2 weeks.
3. Resume monthly at ½ strength balanced (12-12-12).

Result: New growth should be clean. Trim brown tips for appearance.
