Description
“Calla” is derived from the Greek word for “beautiful.” Single blooms with thick, waxy petals are surrounded by light green long, knife-shaped speckled foliage. In hues of yellow, pink, red, lavender, and a deep purple/almost black, the flowers stand tall and stately on strong stems. Simple and stunning while elegant and sophisticated, they are perfect clustered together and tied with a simple ribbon or presented singly in a cut-glass vase
