Callas, also known as calla lily, bring a clean and sculptural touch to gardens and containers. Their smooth, funnel-shaped flowers rise above broad, glossy leaves and come in a wide range of colours from classic white to deep purple, soft pink, bright yellow and rich orange.

Plants grow to about 40 to 80 cm tall and bloom in summer. They work well in borders, pots or as cut flowers where their sleek form stands out in any arrangement.

Originally from southern Africa, callas prefer full sun or partial shade and moist, well-drained soil. The flowers and foliage stay fresh-looking throughout the season with little effort.

Plant the bulbs in spring once the soil has warmed. In colder regions, lift and store them before winter.

Buy top-quality calla bulbs and add a refined and modern feel to your summer garden.
