Cala Lily Help

Does anyone else have problems with getting their cala lily to flower? What is the secret - have tried lifting and replanting after winter to no avail in the past. Do they just need sustained good weather in the summer?

    Nope.

    Where are they growing? They like moist ground.

    Mine have travelled around with me in big pots and far from ideal conditions for a couple of years, but they've still flowered. I have four slightly different ones.

    I put them in pots too - they get plenty of foliage but no flowers at all since they flowered the first year. I have about 4 or 5 different ones but fingers crossed they will perform this year!
