  • Calla Aethiopica, a plant of enduring grace, showcases large, trumpet-like flowers that rise above its verdant, arrow-shaped leaves. Blooming from late spring into summer, it offers a sophisticated and striking visual in garden borders, patio pots, and conservatories. The pure, sculptural blooms provide a lovely contrast to the deep green foliage, cementing its status as a perennial favourite.

  • Reaching a height of approximately 60-90cm, Calla Aethiopica thrives in beds, containers, and even along the edges of ponds. Available as bulbs in quantities of 1, 3, 9, or 12, these plants are easy to establish and will return year after year, provided they are given the right conditions.

    Watering Water thoroughly after planting to settle the soil around the bulbs. During active growth, water in prolonged dry spells so the soil stays lightly moist but never waterlogged. Once the foliage naturally dies back, reduce watering and allow the bulbs to rest more dryly.

    Best Growing Conditions Plant in fertile loam in sun or partial shade. Choose a position that does not stay waterlogged in winter, as good drainage helps bulbs return reliably. Allow the foliage to die back naturally after flowering so the bulb can store energy for the following season.

    Top tip

    Allow the foliage to die back naturally after flowering so the bulb can store energy for the following season. Protect it from frost and consider moving container-grown plants to a sheltered, frost-free position for winter.
