Arum lily 'Red' - Zantedeschia aethiopica (latin)

Geographic origins: South Africa.
Adult size: up to 50 cm.
Foliage: deciduous.
Type of soil: rich and moist, marshland.
Climate: not hardy (remove the bulbs from the ground over winter).
Position: Full sun.


Characteristics and uses:
The arum lily 'Red' is also known as calla lily, it is grown from bulbs and has shiny green leaves with red delicately scented flowers. The flowers are ideal for bouquets.

The bulbs are planted in the spring. They must be grown in very damp soil even marshy conditions because they need a lot of water and risk loosing their leaves if the soil is too dry.

In areas with mild winters, the callas can be kept in the soil if they are covered with a good layer of vegetal mulch.
