Zantedeschia albomaculata (Calla Lily)
Calla abomaculata
OUT OF STOCK
The Calla Albomaculata boasts creamy yellow spadices, surrounded by ivory white spathes which fade to spring green at the floral chamber; where the magnificent flower head is held up by succulent tube-like stems. Broad, wavy foliage with white speckles adorn the base. Native to the hot and humid climates of South Africa, the Calla Lily is mostly found by lakes in moist soils, therefore prefers well-drained soil in a full or half sun location. Calla Lilies are dramatic additions to outdoor gardens with their distinctive funnel-shaped blossoms, but also make excellent cut flowers. We recommend accompanying them with low-growing plants to provide filling foliage over the base areas and covering up those thin stems. Anything that provides fullness and has a shallow root system serves best as a Calla companion, such as New Guinea Impatiens, Astilbes or Hydrangeas. 16cm+ tubers supplied. Flowering May to October. Height 60cm.
