Calla lily flowers are extremely durable cut flowers and have therefore belonged to florists' favourites for years. Plants grown in the garden will also dazzle with the length of the flowering period. The trumpet-resembling flowers appear among the dense foliage from June until beginning of August. Presented variety, named after a famous Dutch painter, is also famous for its decorative leaves. They have long petioles, take on a bright green colour with silvery spots. The Vermeer arum lily is a stunning beauty that will bring you much joy at home and in the garden.

You need a warm site that is sheltered from wind to grow calla lily. It should be bright, yet not exposed to the scorching sun. This species requires a permeable, humous, and light soil. Irrespective of the fact if you decide to grow it in a pot or garden, a drainage layer is a must. Before the first significant temperature drops, you must dig out the bulbs grown in the garden. Transfer them inside and cover with a thin layer of peat. Plant them again in spring.
