This Calla Odessa also called the Zantedeschia is a real black pearl, pretty in black she certainly is. This deep purple-black colour is of course unique, and suits the shape of its chalice-like flower. These beauties continue to flower well into the summer, so lots of colour and sensation in your garden. Combine it with the lovely Canna Madame Angele Martin for a completely different garden mix. 

The plant comes from Africa and this Zantedeschia knows what heat is, yet you have to make sure the soil does not get too wet, just keep it moist. And always cut away unsightly leaves and spent flowers so that this insane beauty can shine and grow again.
