The calla lily, which, by the way, are not lilies at all, but due to a clerical error were put in the wrong family. By the time the mistake was noticed – the name had stuck.
In mythology, Venus, the goddess of love, was so threatened by the calla’s loveliness, she cursed it to decrease its appeal. The curse created the yellow spike in the middle, which is the actual flower of the plant and is a group of small flowers clustered together. I use to adore white calla lilies, until I saw these gorgeous red beauties.
