Vermont Garden Journal: Grow Calla Lilies In Almost Any Location - Vermont Public Radio

What's more, calla lilies are suitable to almost any location as well. This southern beauty is well known for its attractive leaves and colorful flowers. Calla lilies are not hardy in Vermont, but if you can grow canna lilies and dahlias, you certainly can grow calla lilies. The best part about growing calla lilies is their adaptability. You can grow them in containers, under trees or in a full-sun or part-shade flower border. Calla lily varieties come in a range of colors. Try the red ‘Flame,' purple ‘Picasso,' white ‘Florist’ and pink ‘Regal.' While the flowers only last a few weeks in mid-to-late summer, the foliage is attractive throughout the season. The dark green leaves often have white speckles which make them pop in the garden. Plant the bulbs or rhizomes now that the ground has warmed in well-drained soil. Plant in groups of three, five or seven bulbs to create a full look. Water them well and fertilize monthly. Plant calla lilies near clumping perennials such as salvia, sedum and daylilies so they don't get overrun by spreaders. Calla lilies also make great cut flowers. Perhaps the best way to grow calla lilies is in a container.

Slideshow: The Vermont Flower Show 2019 - Seven Days

Hundreds of spring bulbs — along with flowering trees and shrubs — sprouted at the Champlain Valley Exposition during the 19th Vermont Flower Show. From Friday, March 1, through Sunday, March 3, more than 10,000 visitors experienced the tantalizing colors and smells of early spring.The Vermont Nursery and Landscape Association/GreenWorks produces the show every two years, relying on sponsors, VNLA members and associates to fund the show — and contribute hundreds of hours of volunteer effort. It takes roughly 350 volunteers to set up, staff and take down the show.Imaginative displays evoked this year's theme: "Wonder — A Garden Adventure for All Ages." Vendors from across the region brought their wares. The full schedule of programming included demonstrations, seminars, and activities for gardeners, along with family-room performances by Magician Tom Verner, Mr. Chris and Friends, and No Strings Marionette Company. A plant sale at the conclusion of the show helps send the plants and shrubs to new homes.
