Can Calla Lily be repotted in summer? Tips for repotting Calla Lily

1. Calla lily can be repotted in summer

Summer is the dormant period for Calla Lily, so you can change its pot.

Because the plant is repotted during the dormant period, its sensitivity to the external environment will be relatively reduced. Repotting at this time will cause minimal damage to the plant, and it will recover faster after repotting.

Therefore, you should pay attention to the growth period and seedling growth period of the plant and try not to change the pot, otherwise it will affect the normal growth of the plant and even cause death.

2. Tips for repotting Calla Lily

Prepare potting soil: Before repotting the calla lily, prepare a larger flowerpot and soil that is highly breathable, high in nutrients, and rich in humus.

Remove the plant from the pot and prune the roots: After preparing the new potting soil, you can take the plant out of the old pot. But be careful not to water the plant a few days before you remove it from the pot. Because the soil is half dry and half wet, it is easy for the soil and the flower pot to separate. After the plant is removed from the pot, you need to gently peel off the old soil on the roots of the plant, but not all of it, just leave the roots exposed. After the roots are exposed, you need to observe the roots. If there are rotten roots, they should be cut off. Old roots can also be cut off, leaving healthy and vigorous roots.

Planting in pots: First, fill half of the pot with soil, which must be soil with good drainage and air permeability, and then you can add a layer of nutrient soil. Then plant the calla lily, cover the roots little by little with culture soil, and compact the soil in the pot.

Subsequent maintenance: Be sure to water thoroughly for the first time after repotting, and water again after the soil in the pot is completely dry. Alternatively, you can place it in a ventilated and shaded place, and then slowly expose it to the light after two weeks. After repotting, fertilize it again every two or three months, and it must be a thin amount of fertilizer because the root system is relatively fragile at this time.
