Calla 'Grape Velvet'® (2L pot)

Calla lilies are a tender zantedeschias that can be grown as indoor plants or used as temporary summer bedding outdoors. For that reason it is probably best to grow calla lilies as container plants, which can be used to add colour and a focal point outdoors during the warmest summer months (or weeks!) and brought inside during cooler weather. It's worth noting that they won't survive temperatures below 5°C so be mindful of night-time temperatures on what may appear to be warmer days.

'Grape Velvet' provides beautiful purple-pink blooms during the summer, that really stand out against the upright, mid-green foliage. Once the leaves die down after flowering, move them to a dry, frost-free location, preferably in the dark, until spring.

Whether positioning outside or growing as a houseplant, keep the compost moist but take care not to over-water -they'll require even less watering over winter, when you should just keep the compost barely moist.

If growing as a houseplant, they will require at least 6 hours per day of bright indirect light during the spring/summer growing season

• Can be grown in any moist but well-drained, to well drained soil in full sun.
• Height: up to 75cm
• Spread: 20-30cm
