Description
Calla 'Auckland' plays with sweeps of colour and curving lines in creating one of the most beautiful of these elegant blooms. Blushed with deep and pale pink and apricot from the deep base of the curled trumpet shaped bloom the colours seeming to follow the lines of this graceful flower that curls itself round to protect the centre orange stamen rising out of a coal black heart! It’s kind of like seeing a sunset painted on a flower instead of a canvas. It will certainly make an artistic statement in your garden. Calla 'Auckland' blooms from July to September.
Gracy's gardening tip
