Overview

A well-balanced dawn composition of red and orange calla lilies. Originating from southern Africa where they are found colonising reliably moist soils or lake margins, these elegant perennials are at their peak in summer when they produce their magnificent flowers. These look beautiful in the border, but are also excellent for cutting and adding to the vase, where they will usually put on a long-lasting display. Tolerant of a little light shade, they will flower best in a sunny spot and they should be fed and watered freely during the growing season. These sunrise inspired cultivars will need to be moved under glass for the winter months.

Specifications

  • Position: full sun or partial shade
  • Soil: moderately fertile, moist but well-drained soil
  • Rate of growth: average
  • Flowering period: May to June
  • Hardiness: frost tender (will need winter protection)

Care guide

Plant the tubers 7-10cm (3-4in) deep and 30cm (12in) apart into reliably moist, rich soil or good-quality potting compost. Water sparingly until new shoots start to emerge and then start to water more regularly. Best grown as a tender, summer interest plant, this calla lily can be protected from cold in a sheltered, frost-free spot during the winter.

Planting requirements

This bulb dies back after flowering each year and enters a period of rest ahead of regrowth the following season.

Features

  • In each collection you will receive 1 bare root plant of each of the following:
  • Zantedeschia 'Captain Romance' (PBR) (Captain Series): Green flushed at their base, the rich pink spathes of this beautiful arum lily surround contrasting, golden yellow spadices and will mix easily with most shades of pink, blue and purple. Originating from southern Africa where they are found colonising reliably moist soils or lake margins, these elegant perennials look beautiful in the border, but are also excellent for cutting and adding to a vase. Grows to 65cm.
  • Zantedeschia 'Sunset Passion': This stunning calla lily cultivar commands attention with its large, red-orange blooms that deepen in colour as they mature, lasting over many weeks. 'Sunset Passion' features leathery, lance-shaped or arrow-shaped foliage adorned with striking white freckles. Its compact habit makes it ideal for pots and containers on sunny patios, while also serving as a bold focal point in sheltered bog gardens or pond margins. Equally at home in traditional or contemporary settings, it also thrives in reliably moist borders. Grows to 60cm.
  • Zantedeschia 'Red Alert': A compact, tuberous perennial calla lily forming clumps of glossy, green leaves spotted and flecked with white. In summer, rich, dark purple-black flowers are held on upright stems above the foliage. Grows to 60cm.
