Zantedeschia 'Captain Fresco' is a spectacular variety of white calla, appreciated for its unique flowers and abundant flowering.

Care:

• Light: Prefer filtered light or areas with partial sun. Avoid direct exposure to the strong midday sun.
• Temperature: It develops well in moderate temperatures, ideally between 18-24°C. It does not tolerate the cold.
• Watering: Watering should be moderate, allowing the soil to dry easily between waterings. Avoid excess water, which can lead to rotting of the tuber.
• Soil: It needs a well-drained soil rich in nutrients. A mixture of all-purpose soil with perlite or sand may be suitable.
• Fertilization: You can fertilize the plant once a month during the growth period, with a liquid fertilizer for flowering plants, respecting the recommended dosage.
• Propagation: It can be propagated by dividing the tuber at the end of winter or the beginning of spring.

• In areas with a cold climate, Zantedeschia 'Paco' can be grown as an indoor plant or as a container plant during the winter. Bring the tuber to a sheltered place before the first frosts.
• To extend the flowering period, it is recommended to remove the withered flowers as they pass.
