Calla or calla lily is a beautiful garden flower of the arum family. It is native to cool temperate regions of Northern Hemisphere, Northern Asia, North America and Central, Eastern and Northern Europe. Calla is an herbaceous perennial flowering plant that grows in bogs and ponds. 6-12 cm long leaves are round to heart shaped. The greenish-yellow inflorescence is produced on a spadix about 4-6 cm long enclosed in a white spathe. The fruit of calls is a cluster of red berries, berry containing several seeds.

Calls plant is very poisonous when fresh because of high oxalic acid contents. However, the rhizome is edible after drying, grinding, leaching and boiling. Calla grows from a bulb that must be planted in rich and well-watered soils. Often, it is planted in the soil mixed with manure. In many parts of North America, calla is grown indoors or in a greenhouse. In California and Texas, it can be grown outdoors in gardens and flowerbeds.
