Description
Calla Lily 'Red Sox' will literally knock your socks off when you see it glowing alone or dazzling you in a group. This intense red funnel-shaped bloom with a cream base brushed onto the outside of the flower’s cup shooting out above its white speckled leaves will make a huge summer statement if planted in areas where there is full sun. The plants will produce only a limited number of blooms in their first season, but the number will increase as the plant becomes settled.
Calla Lily 'Red Sox' are ideally suited to container gardening, and make excellent, long-lasting cut flowers.
Gracy's gardening tip
"Some Calla Lily varieties (like Red Sox) come with an attractive white dotted foliage, giving them even more flair!"
