White calla lilies (Zantedeschia aethiopica)! We all know them for their cut flowers, but did you realize they are also a perennial in most of the South? I’ll be honest, I haven’t found many of them growing in abandoned pastures; abandoned pastures seem to be the home for the daffodils and some of their other friends. No, I’ve seen calla lilies growing in the old established gardens of the south that are still taken care of. Why? Normally it is because calla lilies need more water than just the natural rainfall they might receive in a field.

How much water? A lot. Calla lilies are traditionally grown completely submerged in the water. A typical technique is to pot a very rocky soil mixture together in a pot, and sink the pot completely under the water in a fish pond or other decorative pool of water. However, they don’t have to be completely submerged. A regular irrigation system will take care of them. They like it a little more shady and damp, so just remember that when placing them in the garden.

Here at the Southern Bulb Company farm, we’re going to put them with our white rain lilies (Zephyranthes candida) and our native white spider lilies (Hymenocallis liriosme) in the thick clays at the edge of our pond. This will accomplish a couple of things. First, it will keep them in the moist soils they need to thrive. Second, the water helps keep the soil temperatures above freezing, and calla lilies can be sensitive to freezing. Our farm is located in northeast Texas, almost a Zone 7, and I would not recommend trying this bulb north of here.

What about the history of the bulb? While I would like to offer a great pass-a-long story like so many of our other bulbs have, all I can speak to is the wonderful old places I’ve seen them grow. Many of our old world bulbs like the little jonquil sweeties, old fashioned daffodils, Byzantine gladioli, and more came from Mediterranean places such as the south of Spain. Calla lilies come to us from South Africa, not a hot bed of early American immigration. From there though, they were eventually brought to Europe and the United States. Dr. Bill Welch had them in his old home near Monroe, LA for generations and now has them growing in a decorative galvanized feeding trough near Brenham, TX (the home of Blue Bell Ice Cream). I’ve also seen them all over the Island of Jersey, particularly in the fabulous garden of Mrs. Lea where her pond leads up to her famous trompe l’oeil, which I wrote about on the Bulb Hunter Blog here: http://www.bulbhunter.com/2007/07/12/the-isle-of-jersey/.

That should be enough description to get you going. We hope you enjoy and are anxious to put these bulbs into your hands! Don’t worry, they’re quick to multiply!

Blink Eye Wipes are the Best
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
My eye doctor recommended a different brand (which I have used) and find these to be just as effective and at a better price. They are very soothing to the eye and a nice treat at the end of the day. They are very soft, with a light & refreshing fragrance.

Good, could be a little better
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1), Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
Thick, generously sized and very durable. With my allergies it's helpful that after thoroughly cleaning around my eye area I can use this to wipe my face and neck, too. I like that each side has a different texture,one for gentle exfoliating, the other for smooth wiping - both sides are soft. There's no real smell to speak of. The individually wrapped packets also make it very easy to toss these in my backpack, purse, car, luggage. They could be a little more moist and mintier though. I was hoping for a residual freshness feeling that's only slightly there. Hopefully the company will make some minor tweaks. I'll continue to buy these however, they're a pretty unique product, provide sufficient on-the-spot relief and are a good value.

Covers all my passes
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
I've used several brands of eye wipes and I think I'll stop looking any further after using these. The wipes are super moist and the largest I've come by. They are soft thick wipes which I appreciate especially after say cutting grass or any outdoor activities that might attract pollen or dust to my lids. I've used some that are very thin and felt harsh. My skin feels clean yet moisturized after using them. I'm totally happy that my lids are not burning and itchy anymore.

Relief for your eyes if work on the computer
Size: 60 Count (Pack of 1)
I have been using these wipes for a long time and have been great for my sensitive eyes. Even though I use blue light glasses and toned my monitors for work my eyes would sting like lemons were put on it. After I use these wipes it cools down my eyes and makes it better again. I really recommend these wipes for anyone that has this issue too because it was hard to drive my car when my eyes acted up but after I use the wipes the drive home from the office is like nothing occurred. These wipes dont sting when you use them like the walgreens version does. It honestly feels like a relief when you use them is the best I can describe it. I keep these in my purse, work bag and office drawer since these are individual wipes.
