THE CALLA LILIES 
They make splendid houseplants, and are rather quick 
and easy from seed, except the Black Calla, which belongs to 
a closely related group, and takes a bit longer to germinate. 
All of the others are, botanically, Zantedeschia. The Callas 
may be grown also for summer bloom in the garden, being 
rested then over winter in the cellar. The Spotted Calla 
is particularly effective as a pool-edge or stream-margin 
plant. See illustration, page 12.
