This well-known Calla Lily is very hardy, provided it is planted sufficiently deep (10-15 cm deep) in humus-rich soil and given an extra layer of mulch in severe frost. The plant structure with fresh green, arrow-shaped leaves is already very ornamental; the bright white, cup-shaped and large flowers have a bright white spathe and a light yellow spadix. Height 80-150 cm, depending on shade or sun and moisture supply.
