This stunning and tender calla lily cultivar commands attention with its large, red-orange blooms that deepen in colour as they mature, lasting over many weeks. 'Sunset Passion' features leathery, lance-shaped or arrow-shaped foliage adorned with striking white freckles.
Its compact habit makes it ideal for pots and containers on sunny patios, while also serving as a bold focal point in sheltered bog gardens or pond margins. Equally at home in traditional or contemporary settings, it also thrives in reliably moist borders.

Plant the tubers 7-10cm (3-4in) deep and 30cm (12in) apart into reliably moist, rich soil or good-quality potting compost. Water sparingly until new shoots start to emerge and then start to water more regularly. Best grown as a tender, summer interest plant, this calla lily can be protected from cold in a sheltered, frost-free spot during the winter.
