I have my calla lily (the kind with spotted leaves) in shade, tho it may
get a bit of afternoon sun late in the day. It's been there for at least 3
years, year-round--looks good, seems happy, but NEVER blooms. I have no
idea what color the fl is. Can anyone advise on encouraging it to bloom?
Would plant food help? When WOULD it bloom? I don't even know.
