Owning a dog, especially a big dog will almost always keep deer from approaching your home. Just the scent of the dog will keep most deer away, and if your dog lives outside you will probably never see any deer.
The huge 4- to 6-inch blooms of purest white open wide for greater color show, revealing the neat pastel-yellow spadix within. And even when these 2- to 3-foot plants aren't blooming, the glossy, arrow-shaped foliage adds great texture to the garden. Expect the blooms in late spring or early summer -- about 2 months from planting time, or year-round when grown as a houseplant. (Just give it a 3-month dormancy period at some point during the year.)
This Calla Lily thrives in sunny or shady beds in the summer garden. In all but tropical areas, the bulbs should be dug up in fall and stored indoors for replanting in spring. Every few years, when the flowering diminishes, dig up the bulb in early fall and divide it into new plants. Feed heavily during the growth period for even bigger, better blooms! Zones 8-11.
