I have started a small exotic garden of about 600 m2 with some shade and humidity. I have chosen a few plants that should be able to acclimate to the soil.

Planting and care

Plant your Calla 'Black Eyed Beauty' bulbs from March to April, at a depth of 12cm (5in), spaced 15cm (6in) apart, preferably in a moist location. Apply organic fertilizer at planting and at least once a year. Cultivating them in large pots is possible, ensuring regular watering to keep the soil moist, with fertilization every 2 months during growth. Mulch them at the first cold weather, as they are susceptible to winter moisture and heavy frosts, and are moderately hardy. In pots, store them indoors during winter. They will form beautiful flowering clumps from June to August in just a few years. You can cut back the foliage after the first frost.
