This California-bred calla lily is a low-growing variety with a magnificent dark colouration. Its upright, 2" funnel-shaped spathe is dark violet and light tan, and can last up to two weeks. Stunning in fresh-cut arrangements, Rio's mature height of 12–18" makes it ideal for use at the front of a summer garden border or in a container. The green, sword-like foliage remains handsome long after the flowers fade.
