ARUM LILY

My Arum Lily has its 4th flush of Flowers this year I dont know if the latest flowers will open as its turning cold here in the North..My question is, how do i protect it over winter? The label said to cover with a thick mulch of Compost, But not knowing how bad a winter were going to get, should i dig it up and overwinter it in my Ghouse???

Is it just a bog standard Zantadeschia ? If so I have one which sails through the winter down south. I know some people cover them etc but I never have. Badly planted and in pretty poor soggy soil, I put it there as a temporary measure and it really liked it so it stayed.:lollol:

 

Yes its a Bog standard BM. I think ill chance it !!! Because the Greenhouse is gonna be pretty full this year :thumb: Im Sweating just thinking about it :D

 

Thanks Marley, They seem Hardier than they Look

 

Dee, when the leaves die off, rip up your old man`s Sporting Life:lollol: And use it as a mulch. Along with several other papers.:thumb:

 

Down south here they're as tough as old boots and love a bice boggy bit of the garden

 

They survive this far north without any trouble Young Daisy.
