I was given two potted Zantedeschias in full bloom. Both are perpetually dripping from the tips of their leaves. Is this good or bad and why does it happen?

I personally love the article of Nature & Garden about this. You can find there all you need to know about guttation. Here’s the link for easy reference: https://www.nature-and-garden.com/gardening/guttation.html
Let me know if you have more questions. 🙂
