Black Calla Lily 'Cantor'

Planting Advice for Zantedeschia:

• Plant corms any time between February and June when the danger of frost is past.
• Bury them saucer shape up, just with a shallow 1-2cm covering of open, well-draining compost.
  Water well.
• Keep them warm and well-watered once planted for two weeks to break their dormancy - on a heater or an airing cupboard is fine, then once the green shoots appear, they can be placed outside.

Aftercare Advice for your Black Calla Lily:

• Water plants only when the soil is slightly dry as plants dislike soggy soil.
• If you wish, pots can be sunk into beds and borders for the summer - callas will thrive in full sun to partial shade — bright, indirect light being ideal.
• give plants a feed with a general-purpose fertiliser once the flowers are fading to promote leaf growth.

Winter Protection Advice:

• Before frost threatens bring pots indoors, storing them in their pots in a dry place. In spring, restarting the cycle again with light and water.

Please allow us 7-10 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
