Notes
'Odessa' calla lily (Zantedeschia 'Odessa') is a perennial for borders, cut flowers, containers, and accents. It is hardy to USDA zone 8, or down to 10°F (-12°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to wet, loamy or clay soil. The flowers are black, and the plant grows up to 24 inches tall. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal. Sande B.V. bred it.
Pairs well with Karl Foerster feather reed grass, Ostrich fern, and Meadowsweet.
