In order to introduce colours to the large white calla lilies, like the many colours available in the dwarf summer calla lilies, attempts have been made to hybridise Z. aethiopica with Z. elliotiana. These have resulted in albino progeny, which are non-viable. [citation needed]
Calochortus flowers have six tepals.Unlike most other Liliaceae, Calochortus tepals are in two series that differ in size and color. [7] The outer three are generally narrower and more sepal-like, while the inner three are larger, usually with bright marks at the base, [8] and are often described as petals. [9]
Common names include arum lily for Z. aethiopica, calla and calla lily for Z. elliottiana and Z. rehmannii. However, members of this genus are not true lilies [ 4 ] (which belong to the family Liliaceae ), and the genera Arum and Calla , although related, are distinct from Zantedeschia , despite visual similarities.
Zantedeschia albomaculata, commonly called the spotted calla lily [2] (although Calla is a genus unto itself) or the white spotted arum, is a species of flowering plant in the arum family, Araceae. [3]
Plant propagation is the process of plant reproduction of a species or cultivar, and it can be sexual or asexual. It can happen through the use of vegetative parts of the plants, such as leaves, stems, and roots to produce new plants or through growth from specialized vegetative plant parts.
The distance that a plant can move during vegetative reproduction is limited, though some plants can produce ramets from branching rhizomes or stolons that cover a wide area, often in only a few growing seasons. In a sense, this process is not one of reproduction but one of survival and expansion of biomass of the individual.
Calla lily is a common name of several members of the family, Araceae. It may refer to: Calla palustris; Zantedeschia generally Zantedeschia aethiopica specifically;
The plant may also propagate in undesirable areas, taking over the habitats of nearby plants and reducing biodiversity. Thus Curculigo capitulata is considered a weedy plant and has a high risk of decreasing biodiversity. However, the plant does not have any spines, [12] burrs or spikes and is not toxic. It is used only for ornamental purposes.
