Koala flowers (calla) have long been associated with such an event as a wedding. Today they are more popular than ever. They look great in pots, in open ground and in cut form. Koalas, domestic flowers, have low operational requirements. If you want to grow calla in your garden, then it is better to do this from a bulb with fleshy roots (rhizome). Or a less expensive option is to grow a plant from seeds.
First of all, you need to prepare them for landing. Place several layers of a wet towel on a saucer. Place light calla seeds on it and cover them with another moist layer of cloth. Place the dish in a dark, cool place. Check the fabric for moisture, but the cloth should not be very wet so that the seeds do not rot. After a few days, the seeds begin to germinate, if for some reason some have not germinated, throw them away.
Then fill the small pots with soil for flowering plants and plant the seeds at the rate of two seeds per pot not too deep. Place the pots in a warm place with diffused sunlight. It is necessary to water very carefully and in small quantities (in order to avoid decay of seeds). If the soil is too dry on top, spray water through a spray bottle to keep the seeds moist rather than moist. Sprouts appear after a week, or even after a month. When the seedlings have sprouted, you need to inspect them and abandon the weak in each pot. In the process of development, seedlings, like an adult flower, need heat, moisture and the sun.
When it's time for a transplant, you have two options. Plant them in the garden or grow in a pot, they will take root well and will grow anyway.
The homemade koala flower grows well in large flowerpots, which give the rhizomes enough space for development. The plant needs good drainage and watering - callas love water. Also, do not forget about fertilizer to provide them with the necessary nutrients.
You can also plant your calla lily directly in the garden. Choose a sunny spot and water the seedlings well until they become an entrenched plant.
You probably have a question: when will the koala (flower) bloom? If you grow a plant from seeds, do not expect flowers in the first year. Most koala varieties bloom in the second or third year after they have been transplanted. For those who want the koala (flower) to release the arrow faster, we recommend planting the plant with a bulb.
This species is unpretentious, will grow indoors in bright light with a temperature of 21-24 ° C. When grown as a houseplant, a koala (flower) can easily be transplanted. When it grows, and the flowerpot becomes cramped for it, just transplant the plant into a larger pot, without breaking the roots. You need to feed with a weak liquid fertilizer every two to three weeks, while they grow and bloom. When the plant begins to bloom, remove dried arrows and pause fertilizer application.
