Hi everyone! :D I have an arum lily in a massive pot that I'd like to plant out in the garden in a nice, moist, shady spot. It's been doing well in the container, but as there are no holes in the darn thing :o, I'm worried about the water going stale and the plant dying from lack of oxygen (no, the container is zinc oxide, so I won't be drilling holes in it...) anyone know whether it's possible to lift and plant it out in the garden now? many thanks for any help or advice! ;D
i have no advice for you, unfortunately.
just to say my arum lily is budding at the moment - not that i would pot it now - it seems perfectly happy in its present container :)
I expect if you can lift it intact with the soil and put it in the same size hole as your container it will be alright. I have just found one in the wrong position and have taken it out of the ground and put it in a large pot with no bad effects, as it just about to open.
I transplanted one in late July and it was fine.
