These magnificent mid-sized calla lilies are, for all intensive purposes, a scaled down version of the large calla lily. They look great in arrangements of wholesale flowers and wedding flowers and are a fantastic size for bouquets.
Description: These beautiful flowers have thick stems much like their larger counterpart. Each flower head measures about 3.5 to 4 inches in length and opens to a diameter of about 2 to2.5 inches. These mid-sized callas are usually around 16 inches in length.
Please be aware that due to the size of the blooms and thickness of the stems, the mid-sized calla lilies are usually too big for use as boutonnieres or corsages.
Availability: Mid-sized calla lilies are available year round from our flower farms in Central and South America.

All orders for this product must be placed at least 10 days prior to your desired delivery date.

** Special Tips **
It is important that our customers understand that the calla lilies behave differently than other varieties of flowers:
- Sometimes the calla lilies are shipped with plastic sleeves around the flower heads. Carefully remove the plastic sleeves upon arrival.
- When the calla lilies arrive, it is not uncommon for all the flowers in a bunch to bend in the same direction. Place the flowers in bunches of 10 stems and turn the calla lilies so that the blooms are all bending out in different directions. Secure the bunches with rubber bands placed at the bottom, in the middle, and up near the top of the stem. This simple procedure will ensure that your calla lilies will stand tall and strong when put out for display.
- From time to time the small tips (the curly-Q's) of the calla lilies will turn brown. Our world class calla lily farms have assured us that the browning of the tip is a normal occurrence and in no way compromises the quality or integrity of the flower. These little tips are the first part of the lily to emerge from the ground and endure much as the flower grows and matures. To improve the presentation if this condition exists, simply trim the tip (curly-Q) at an angle right below where it begins to turn brown.
As always, please call us if you have any questions.
