Shinnen said: Hi,
I bought my wife a yellow calla lily a few days ago, and noticed this morning that the area around the stamens, and some of the stamens themselves, are turning black. I don't remember seeing this when I bought it. It's been in the house since. Is this normal?
Thanks,

It is not normal for the stamens and the area around them on a calla lily to turn black. This discoloration could be a sign of a fungal or bacterial infection, or it could be due to environmental stressors such as overwatering or lack of sunlight. You should inspect the plant closely to see if there are any other signs of disease or damage, such as yellowing or wilting leaves, and consider adjusting the plant's care to prevent further problems. It may be helpful to remove any affected parts of the plant and isolate it from other plants to prevent the spread of disease. If the problem persists or worsens, you may want to consult a plant expert or a local nursery for further advice.
