Re: Zantedeschia

Dear Susan,
 
Do you have any information about Zantedeschia crowborough, the hardiest of all Zantedeschia?   There is a story behind that which I would like to hear again.  The plant was given to me but I don't recall from whom and the story got lost with the lack of recall.  I would love it if someone remembers what happened that horridly cold year in Crowborough for which the plant was named.  This is one plant that I don't have to worry about.  It gets nothing and gives everything.  It even lacks sun year round in our foggy, windy, cold climate and still produces lovely leaves and flowers.  The only thing attracted to it are slugs and snails...but no Zantedeschia is safe from those animals.
 
Thanks!
Susan Cox

Dear List,

I was asked about a puny Zantedeschia yesterday and find that we don't
yet have a discussion of it on the IAS site. Do we have a person
reading this who is familiar with ordinary sorts of Calla lilies and
might give some advice on what to do to keep these guys happy?
