Zantedeschia
Name: Pronounced zanter-DESK-ya
or zanter-DEE-sha, but commonly known as calla or arum lilies which are much easier
to say! Calla was the old Victorian name for them before they were renamed Zantedeschia.
Colour: Available all year round in shades of pinks,
pale creams, and flesh tones, purple-black, yellow and terracotta oranges.
Varieties: White arums are very popular with style
gurus for their sculptural elegant shape. Their richly coloured relatives are
becoming better known, they have smaller, more elegant flower shape and lend themselves
more easily to mixing with other flowers.
Availability:
All year round.
Care Tips: They last around
two weeks. The petals are fleshy and very easily bruised, take care when transporting
or arranging them.
