Nice one I am surprised it survived such low tempretures.

While the varieties aren't found here, Z. aethiopica grows on all the islands in the Azores, mostly along dry stream beds and pastures. I'm sure the cows enjoy them, although they don't eat them.

3PB I was surprised but it was planted in the border which helped ...

Perhaps it liked company and shelter from other plants around it.

I love the contrast of the flowers against a dark background. I have never had to replace my Zantedeschia, although once or twice it has taken a year or two to regain its full glory, after a bad winter.

Stunning white against the dark foliage. :)
