Linda,

How much light do your plants get each day?  How is the soil quality?
I have 3 separate planting of  Zantedeschia aethiopica and the
shadiest bed produces wonderful foliage, but no blooms.  The other two
planting get more sunlight and are currently blooming. Do you
fertilize them? I fed mine a nicely balance fertilizer (I used
16-16-16 granules for use in cool weather) a few weeks ago and they
seemed to perk right up.  Also trimming off any damaged foliage from
slug, frost, or insects help to initiate new growth.

Morning sun, then filtered, since its under an oak tree.  I haven't fed it too much since it is growing so well and filling the pot.  I just transplanted it to a 12" pot with ProMix BX.  I use a time release fertilizer with occasional liquid feedings.  But maybe the problem is that we just don't get cold enough in Florida.
