I have calla lilies that I just started this year, I know I have to let them dry and stand dormant for a few months, what I would like to know is, one of them has a seed pod growing on it, what do I do with that? What does this seed pod produce, and do I keep them and start new ones from them? Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.

This coming from a newbie..And mainly my first question here so please be kind...Anyway, I on my first encounter with planting anything have planted a few Calla Lilies, it said when I planted to put them with the little ?pointed things? (excuse me...nipples) up..Well, on two I put in one pot, I honestly couldn't determine where those things were..So the point is, 2 of the 4 I have planted have started sprouting no problem (and I was so excited..Finally, I am getting something to grow-these were the first flowers I had planted) Anyway, can I go into the dirt and turn the bulbs or anything? Or are they just a lost cause?

I know this sounds like a totally stupid question, but I really don't know and am totally lost here...

Thanks a billion for your assistace on this matter...I am really excited about this new hobby of mine and eager to learn.

Thanks so much for your help! I greatly appreciate it....I just figured since the one pot had already sprouted out so nicely, that the other was a lost cause...It never occurred to me to just give it a bit longer. I have been in the house painting for the last 3 days (on my days off ) and haven't been able to check in since I posted that..And that idea of planting on the side...Why didn't I think of that?? Guess that is why I have you guys...Thanks sooooo much!
