Callas Starting To Bloom

Post by kHT »

I just cut back all the white ones and the colored ones are starting to bloom, so I'm sharing. I moved 3/4 the plants
out of the walkway and put in these due to they are DH favorite plants and I had to many in pots. I only keep the large
purple one in the pots as they say she isn't hardy here. Well I'm wondering now as the other one is just breath taking!
I have also noted the change in colors on a couple. Will add more as they open and the deep purple that we have has
seedpods already!

Thanks Bill for starting this addiction. We harvested seedpods today!! None of the deep purple had seedpods so we are allowing them to to continue to grow.
I have half a cup of the huge ones yellow and orange ones.

I have almost stopped collecting seed because of my age (87 Sept 21) unless its a strong colour like yours.
