If yes, do I cut off the blooms. Will it come up every year like other lilys do?

Hi Marlene,It depends on where you live. A Calla Lily is hardy to over-winter in zones 7-10 according to this article that I read. Click on the link below to learn what to do to make it happen or keep it in the pot for use indoors and out. Wishing you the best.http://articles.extension.org/pages/40201/i-received-a-calla-lily-in-a-pot-in-may-as-a-gift-can-i-plant-it-outdoors-is-it-an-annual-or-perenni -

Yes Marlene plant it outside so it gets some sun and next spring it will come back and guess what? It will multiply. -

Yes cutting them off helps plant to store energy for spring blooms. -

Marlene,You know not to cut them off after blooming but before they swell up making seed pods. -

Marlene, That would depend on where you live. I was just looking at them tonight at Publix's but I live in Lee County, Florida. The tag on the flower should give you the information you need. Rick Allen
