Zantedeschia ‘Calla Lily’ assorted – 20cm Pot
Calla Lily Assorted is a wonderful, striking flower which will give you an amazing floral display. The blooms emerge on short stems which appear through the foliage. The leaves are a strappy rich green with flecks. The flowers first emerge in late spring to summer in purple, yellow, white or apricot. The blooms can be used for cut flower arrangements. Best grown in full sun in the garden in humus-rich, free-draining friable soil. Plant bulbs in winter for optimum results. Keep plants well-watered throughout the warmer months, applying a layer of mulch around the base of the plant once it has broken dormancy will help to retain more moisture when it is needed. Fertilise with an all-purpose food in peak growing seasons.

How to plant:
Prior to planting make sure the area in which the plant will be planted has been prepared. If the soil is sandy adding well-aged compost or animal manures to the soil will help condition and improve the structure of the soil. For heavy clay, add compost and clay breakers to the soil as this will make the texture more friable. If planting into pots make sure the container selected is large enough to accommodate the plant that will be planted and the correct potting mix has been chosen. Position the plant into the hole and backfill with soil and gently tap down. Once planted give a deep soaking of water and wait for it to grow.
