Plant in full sun (coastal) or light shade, keeping soil moist when plants are in active growth. If possible keep dry from fall through winter while plants are dormant. Can be lifted and replanted in early spring.

This was the first of the winter dormant hybrid Calla we grew. We sold it from 1992 until 2004. These winter dormant Calla lilies with Zantedeschia elliotiana, Zantedeschia rehmanni and Zantedeschia pentandii parentage all seemed to resent our wet winter soils. We initially grew these parent species in the 1990s but moved on to growing the hybrids by 1992. They were good looking plants in their first years when we sold them, but we stopped growing all of these hybrids by 2008 because, like the parent species, they were not sustainable in our gardens without the corms being lifted. 

The information displayed on this page about Zantedeschia 'Super Gem' is based on our research conducted about this plant from books in our nursery library as well as from information that is provided by reliable online resources. We also have included our own observations made about it as it grew in the nursery gardens and other gardens visited, as well how the crops of this plant performed in the containers when we had them in our nursery field. We also include comments received from others and welcome hearing from anyone who has information about this plant, particularly if it includes cultural information aiding others to better grow it.
