  ZANTEDESCHIA WHITE – Zantedeschia aethiopica (Arum Lily) With its exotic-sounding name and unique and unusual appearance, it is hard to believe that Zantedeschia hails predominantly from our fair shores.  The Zantedeschia blooms with a stunning flower that is borne directly from its fleshy stem. The stems can vary in length, ranging from 10 cm – 70 cm, depending on the species. The flower stands perfectly vertical and is a large convoluted and enclosed funnel with a slightly recurved tip. Zantedeschia ’s extraordinary flowers are complemented by broad, upright and arrow-shaped leaves, which are often spotted. For all its marvelous beauty and grandeur, Zantedeschia is in fact a wonderfully simple bulb to grow and is sure to flourish in your garden this summer.

  The flowers are faintly scented and this attracts various crawling insects and bees which are responsible for pollinating the flowers. Cross pollination occurs as the anthers of each flower ripen before the ovaries. The spathe turns green after flowering and covers the ripening berries. It rots away when these are ripe and the succulent yellow berries attract birds, which are responsible for seed dispersal. The arum is found from the Western Cape through the Eastern Cape, KwaZulu-Natal, Mpumalanga and into the Northern Province. It is evergreen or deciduous depending on the habitat and rainfall regime. In the Western Cape it is dormant in summer and in the summer rainfall areas it is dormant in winter. It will remain evergreen in both areas if growing in marshy conditions which remain wet all year around. Zantedeschia aethiopica grows from 0.6-1 m but may get taller in the shade. It has lush looking dark green leaves with an arrow head shape. The size varies according to the amount of shade. The flowers appear in a main flush from August to January, although there may be the odd flower at other times of the year also. The white arum forms large colonies in marshy areas ranging from the coast to an altitude of 2250m. Thus one will find them contending with humid, salt laden air at the coast and freezing, misty mountain grasslands at high altitudes. They are very versatile in the garden as a result. The leaves of the arum are very interesting in that they contain water stomata which can discharge excess water, by a process known as "guttation". This prevents water-logging and enables arum lilies to grow in wet conditions. The rhizome is large and eaten by wild pigs and porcupines and the ripe fruit enjoyed by birds. Traditionally the plant is boiled and eaten. Raw plant material causes swelling of the throat because of microscopic, sharp calcium oxalate crystals. The leaves are also traditionally used as a poultice and a treatment for headaches.

Alpine Strawberry 'White Soul'   Botanical Name: Fragaria vesca Exposure: Sun to Partial Shade Bloom Time and Color: White or near white blooms in late summer to early autumn. Description: Alpine strawberry is a low-growing, compact perennial about 25cm high with a spread of 20cm. Flowers are round-petaled in flat clusters on a separate stalk from the leaves. The fruit is a small, white in color, cone-shaped berry studded with tiny, brown seeds. They have a fragrance and taste more delicate than the larger cultivated berries. Alpine strawberries grow quickly and are ever-bearing. Once the fruit appears, the plant will continue to bear all season. These seeds can be lightly sown onto a seed tray filled with potting compost. Cover the seeds with a thin layer of compost - no more than 1/4 inch - and gently water in. Transfer the seed tray to a cold, greenhouse or even a well lit room as both are suitable for germination which should take anywhere between 2 and 8 weeks. Once the strawberry plants have germinated, wait for the 3rd true leaves to appear and then transplant into bigger containers or if weather permits, the plants can be planted directly outside in to their final position. For best results choose a well drained, moist and slightly alkaline soil.   View our other items by clicking on the shield:
