The compact calla lily known as 'Lavender Gem' blooms in the summer with a captivating flower structure. The complex bloom features a lavender-violet leaf-like spathe wrapped around a pale yellow finger-like spadix. The base of the throat is a striking dark purple, creating a pleasant contrast with the pale spadix. The bright green, lance-shaped leaves are succulent and numerous, thriving best in morning sun and afternoon shade. Based on our years of experience growing these plants at our nursery, the harsh afternoon sun can seem to "burn" the foliage.

The name 'Lavender Gem' perfectly encapsulates the essence of this stunning plant. The compact size of the calla lily makes it an ideal choice for a variety of garden settings. The complex flower structure, with its lavender-violet spathe and pale yellow spadix, is truly a sight to behold. The dark purple base of the throat adds depth and richness to the bloom, while the bright green, succulent leaves provide a lush and vibrant backdrop.
