Zantedeschia Picasso (Calla Lily)
OUT OF STOCK
This unusual look flower, Zantedeschia, also known as the Calla lily, displays bright yellow spadices, surrounded by beautiful purple flushed white spathes with a deep purple throat. At the floral chamber the spathes blend into spring green, and are held up by succulent tube-like stems, surrounded by broad, wavy foliage speckled with white. Flowering from May to October. 16cm+ tubers supplied. 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. Exhibition quality 16cm+ tubers supplied. Flowers July to October. Height 40cm.
