Calla (New Zealand) Black Star

Looking for stopper plants? You've found them! Black Star callas are tall, with deep purple to black blossoms and black stems. Even the broad foliage is edged in purplish black, veined with the same deep shade and spotted with creamy splashes. This calla is a garden stopper even when not in bloom. With 4 to 8 flowers per big bulb (we'll send a trio for this price) Black Star is a border and pot celebrity of the highest caliber. Hard to find New Zealand callas are prized for their extra tall, large flowers. A florist's dream, these make outstanding, long lasting cut flowers in estate size arrangements. New Zealand callas are also superb garden plants in mixed beds and are magnificent in oversized containers. All varieties exhibit good to excellent disease resistance. Very limited stock for '09 and odds are slim these will be available in future seasons. For planting info see the "Calla Lily Planting Guide" link below.		Buy More & Save!
