I'm not a fan of white Easter lilies, so I got myself a calla lily instead to use as a table centerpiece. Per my water garden books, this can be a bog or marginal plant, but there appears to be some sort of winter protection to the crowns that I am a bit unclear on. Has anyone in the PNW had success keeping these in-pond over winter, or should I plan to winter it over in the barn or basement? One of my books is particularly confusing: hardy or half-hardy, deciduous or evergreen, bog or marginal --- ?? The tag at the grocery store says it may colonize if it likes its conditions but of course is a bit hazy on what those conditions might be. I bought it from Haggen and while the garden lady is very nice, she is not overly knowledgeable. This was one of my Mom's favorite flowers so I'm happy to just enjoy it while I can, but also hoping to keep it going. Thanks, and have a great Easter.
