Zantedeschia 'Sunset Passion'

calla lily bulb

Product Image
This stunning and tender calla lily cultivar commands attention with its large, red-orange blooms that deepen in colour as they mature, lasting over many weeks. 'Sunset Passion' features leathery, lance-shaped or arrow-shaped foliage adorned with striking white freckles. Its compact habit makes it ideal for pots and containers on sunny patios, while also serving as a bold focal point in sheltered bog gardens or pond margins. Equally at home in traditional or contemporary settings, it also thrives in reliably moist borders.

How to care for Zantedeschia Sunset Passion:

Plant the tubers 7-10cm (3-4in) deep and 30cm (12in) apart into reliably moist, rich soil or good-quality potting compost. Water sparingly until new shoots start to emerge and then start to water more regularly. Best grown as a tender, summer interest plant, this calla lily can be protected from cold in a sheltered, frost-free spot during the winter.
