Container culture of Zantedeschia

Zantedeschia Spreng.

Technology for growing Zantedeschia in pots, based on tuber cycle management, the use of plant growth retardants to regulate habitus, and hormonal stimulation of flowering.

In the reference 77 varieties crop Arum-lily, where this is mentioned in the description.

Commercial container culture of Zantedeschia requires the mandatory application of plant growth retardants to prevent excessive shoot elongation and maintain compactness. The process is based on the use of prepared tubers that undergo temperature programming to synchronize flowering and treatment with gibberellic acid to increase the number of flower stalks by up to 300%.

The technology strictly regulates the correspondence between container size and tuber diameter and requires rigorous control of the water regime. Excess substrate moisture is a critical risk, provoking the development of bacterioses such as Erwinia. The production cycle includes a forced dormancy period, achieved by ceasing irrigation and fertilization to ensure successful flower bud initiation for the next season.
