Calla 'Majestic Red' (Ships in Spring)

Zantedeschia

Calla Lily 'Majestic Red' features red blooms with a satin sheen. The elegant, chalice-shaped flowers rise above broad, sword-like foliage speckled with white, adding striking contrast to garden beds and containers. Blooming from late spring to early fall, this variety grows 14 to 24 inches tall and thrives in full sun to partial shade with moist, well-drained soil. Hardy in USDA zones 8 to 10, it can be grown as an annual in colder climates, with bulbs lifted and stored for winter. 'Majestic Red' is deer-resistant and makes an excellent choice for cut arrangements and container plantings.

Growing and Maintenance Tips for Calla 'Majestic Red' (Ships in Spring)

Planting: In spring, plant rhizomes after the last frost when soil has warmed to at least 60°F. Set them just below the surface—about 3 to 4 inches deep—with the growing points facing upward.
Location: Choose a spot in full sun or partial shade. In hotter climates, afternoon shade helps prevent stress.
Soil: Use fertile, humus-rich, moist but well-drained soil.
Watering: Keep soil consistently moist during active growth, especially in dry spells. Avoid waterlogging.
Temperature: Ideal range is 60–75°F. In zones below 8, grow as annuals or lift rhizomes in fall.
Fertilization: Feed every 2–3 weeks with a high-potash fertilizer—liquid seaweed is a great organic option.
Pruning: Remove spent blooms and yellowing foliage to tidy the plant and encourage new growth.
Pest & Disease: Watch for aphids, thrips, and fungal issues. Ensure good air circulation and avoid soggy soil.
Propagation: Divide rhizomes in spring before planting.
