About Captain Chelsea Calla Lily (Zantedeschia)

Calla Lilies, also known as Zantedeschia, stand out as among the world's most sophisticated and exotic cut flowers. The Captain Chelsea Calla Lily captivates with its dazzling yellow, chalice-shaped blooms, each adorned with a striking purple-burgundy throat reminiscent of artistic brush strokes. With each flower encircled by graceful, sword-like dark green leaves occasionally speckled with white, the foliage is a masterpiece in itself.

Relatively easy to grow, Captain Cheleas rises elegantly on sturdy steams that reach a height of 16-24 inches (40-60 cm). Displaying their beauty for weeks, from the heart of summer to fall, Calla Lilies effortlessly enhance borders, mixed perennial beds, containers, or floral arrangements, consistently offering a spectacular show with their opulent and vibrant hues.

How to Grow Calla Lilies

Planting Calla Lilies

Plant in spring after the last frost.
If you cannot plant your bulbs and perennials right away, store them in a cool, dry, dark location, like a basement.
Plant them with the pointy end up in a sunny to semi-shaded area about 8 cm (3 in) deep and 40 to 45 cm (16 to 18 in) apart.
When planted in a container, 3 rhizomes are perfect for a 30 cm (12 in) pot.
Water thoroughly after planting.

Growing Calla Lilies

These bulbs will grow in any normal garden soil, but prefer moist well-drained soil and heavy feedings of organic matter.
These bulbs are easy to grow and look majestic in mass plantings or in containers.

Calla Lilies Care

Water as needed during active growth periods, but allow the soil to become dry between watering.
These flowers last a long time as cut flowers, making them popular for arrangements and bouquets.
These flowers attract hummingbirds and butterflies.

Winterizing Calla Lilies

These bulbs are not winter hardy and need to be dug up after the first frost.
Do not wash but dry the bulbs for a day.
Store away from drafts at 5 °C to 10 °C (40 °F to 50 °F) in a paper bag or box filled with dry peat moss.
