Calla Lily 'Odessa', Arum Lily 'Odessa'
Dramatic-looking, Calla Lily ‘Odessa’ (Zantedeschia) features striking, dark, almost-black purple, trumpet-shaped flowers (spathes). Every single flower is surrounded by elegant, arrow-shaped, dark green leaves lightly spotted with white. On display for weeks from summer to fall.
Native to South Africa, Calla Lilies deserve a spot in the garden or at home. Whether used in borders, containers or as cut flowers, they always provide a spectacular effect with their rich, cheerful colors and their breathtaking trumpet-shaped flowers (spathe) surrounding a yellow finger-like stalk (spadix). And they are so easy to grow! With very little work needed, they will burst into bloom and add bright notes of summer color to the garden, or to your pots inside your home.
