Zantedeschia Orient Express

Calla Lily

“Orient Express” is a smaller variety of Calla Lily grown for its stunning flowers and lush foliage. Large and showy, dark pink flowers are borne through spring and summer. The flowers are held above the broad and glossy, dark green leaves which are aesthetic in their own right. This herbaceous perennial grows as a clump to about 60 cm tall and 50 cm wide, and may die back during winter but will regrow again when temperatures warm. It grows best when planted in full sun on a well-drained, sheltered site, though it is tolerant of frost, coastal environments, and periods of dry. “Orient Express” is ideal for including in cottage gardens, adding to a mixed or border planting, or simply maintaining in a container and bringing indoors when it flowers. For best displays try a mass planting with plants spaced 30 cm apart.
