However, when I looked up when they should be planted, it clearly states they should be planted in the Spring, which has obviously long gone.<\/p>\n<p>Please can you tell me whether I should go ahead and plant them now, or should I store them in a cool, dark place and plant them next Spring?  <\/p>\n<p>I intend to use John Innes No. 3 but should I mix this with something else?<\/p>\n<p>I look forward to hearing.<\/p>\n<p>Miranda<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"hubmaster_faq_answer\">Yes plant them now and they will flower this year still &#8211; just a little a later as they&#8217;ve been held back in a Coldstore. <\/p>\n<p>They will then revert back to their usual flowering cycle next year. <\/p>\n<p>Plant in a loam-based compost such as John Innes No. 2 or you can mix it with a good-quality multi-purpose compost if you would like. Either is fine. Ensure they have adequate drainage and placed in a very warm position to get them activated. <\/p>\n<p>All instructions and care advice for Callas can be found here:<br \/>\nhttps:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/how-to-plant-and-grow-calla-lilies\/<\/p>\n<p><em class=\"hubmaster_faq_editor\">The Hart Family<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes plant them now and they will flower this year still &#8211; just a little a later as.. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/calla-lily-planting-and-care-advice\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[471,232],"class_list":["post-7867","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-faq","tag-c281","tag-faq"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7867","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7867"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7867\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7867"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7867"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hartsnursery.co.uk\/lily-info\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7867"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
