Indoor Calla Lillies. For the past few years i have kept bulbs and repotted, however, each year they seem to bolt and grow extremely high and spindly. any clue to why? I have tried different locations and potting medium.

They look etiolated and short of nitrogen. This suggests they're not getting enough light, and sunlight in particular - an east or west facing windowsill is ideal. More info here, in case you've also got temperature problems and incorrect soil ph

my thought would be lack of light and too warm. as Bamboo says check the link.
