Re: Calla color

From: Judy Bauer <jbauer at concordnc.com> on 1998.05.14 at 03:05:11(2124) Hi Donna, Some of my Zanthedeschia rehmanii were spectacular while in bloom last year. I did notice a couple of the pink Calla looked a little grayed. Last year I ran an ad in the North Carolina Agriculture Review (http://www.agr.state.nc.us/paffairs/ads.htm) and sold almost everyone of my Callas. I could have sold twice as many if I had them. Maybe your Callas need new homes also. I'll miss not having the Callas in bloom in my yard this year and the beautiful long lasting boutiques.
