Zantedeschia aethiopica

Zantedeschia aethiopica produces clumps of broad, arrow-shaped leaves with a smooth surface and rich green color that create a lush, upright presence through the growing season. Rising above the foliage in late spring and early summer, elegant white, funnel-shaped blooms unfold around a central yellow column. The sculptural flowers open in graceful curves that hold their form for extended periods, creating a refined display among the bold leaves.

Native to southern Africa, particularly regions of South Africa and Lesotho, Zantedeschia aethiopica grows naturally in moist grasslands and along streambanks. In gardens it lends an elegant accent to borders, waterside plantings, and ornamental beds where the clean white blooms provide seasonal interest.
