Zantedeschia - Obnoxius Weed gets Makeover

"A weed is a plant that you don't want in your garden."


If you mention you like "Arum Lillies" to a farmer in Busselton you're likely to find your head in your hands - unattached to your neck. These noxious weeds were introduced to this area by our late founder Georgiana Molloy who thought they looked pretty and wanted them in her garden.

Good news though - not all Canna Lillies (Zantedeschia) are bad.
Bloomz in NZ have created a new variety "Hot Chocolate" which looks absolutely awesome. I might even replace all the pesky Arum's with these just out of spite. I haven't found anybody selling them in WA, yet, but there are some good links to get them from the eastern states.
