Callas (Zantedeschias), well known as ‘Arum Lilies,’ make a prestigious cut flower. Only Aethiopica can be considered hardy but all are surprisingly easy to grow in a moist rich soil.

Calla lilies are a popular ornamental flower characterized by its long stem and trumpet-shaped bloom. The name “calla” is derived from the Greek word for beautiful. Making it an elegant choice for any bouquet or floral arrangement.

Calla lilies come in a variety of colors, including pink, cream, yellow, lavender and white. Additionally, they can be found in both miniature and full sizes, giving you more options when creating your own designs.

Callas (Zantedeschias) can also last up to two weeks when placed in water-filled vases with fresh flowers. This makes them perfect for events such as weddings and other special occasions!

To keep your calla lilies looking beautiful, there are a few simple steps you can follow. First, start by cutting off the bottom one-third of their stems and then put them in a vase filled with fresh water.

Change the water every two days to prevent bacteria from growing, which can cause the lilies to deteriorate quickly.

Additionally, add a few drops of liquid plant food into the water for extra nourishment. Make sure that each stem is standing upright and that no leaves are submerged in order to maintain an even temperature throughout the petals. Lastly, place your calla lilies in a cool environment and away from direct sunlight or heat sources to ensure they stay looking vibrant for as long as possible.
