The calla lily is a much appreciated flower in decorating and by Artists, for its elegant appearance. The calla lily originates from South Africa. It really isn�t known when when the calla lily showed up in Europe, but based on an illustration from the Royal Garden in Paris in 1664, it is safe to say that it was grown in Europe at that time. The calla lily became a very popular flower after that, showing up at funerals, weddings and practically any festivity in Europe. It was especially popular since it could be made to bloom all year around in the southern to center parts of Europe using simple greenhouses. Wile spreading over the world the calla lily also became a very popular motif for painters as the form and colors were extremely appealing to the eye of the beholder. But it did not stop there, since the calla lily was quite sturdy and could survive for a long time even removed from the plant, it quickly became a very popular cut flower. The lonely calla lily cut and placed in a high and sleek white vase is considered a classic by Interior Designers.
