Description
Planting ‘Lipstick’ Calla Lilies is like blowing a kiss to the rest of your garden. Callas are well-suited to containers, where their glossy foliage and softly fluted flowers can be enjoyed up close. Grow them on a sunny deck, patio, or balcony! Plus, the elegant flowers make them popular in cut flower bouquets.
Native to South Africa, Callas prefer sunny sites with moist soil. They can benefit from some shade or protection from intense afternoon sun, which can burn the foliage. In hot climates, the plant will die back and go dormant after flowering.
In colder zones, you can lift and store the bulbs in a cool, dry location for the winter, then re-plant them in spring.
