How do I know if my calla lily is dormant?

Your calla lily is going dormant when it begins to naturally slow its growth, and the leaves start to yellow, wilt, and die back. This typically occurs in the UK in late autumn. During this time, you should gradually reduce watering and allow the plant to rest. Dormancy is a necessary phase for healthy rhizome development and future flowering. Avoid forcing the plant to stay green by continuing regular watering and feeding - this can exhaust the plant and shorten its lifespan.
