Be My® First Love Calla Lily

Be My® First Love is an upright calla lily with vivid hot-pink spathes and glossy green foliage. Its summer flowers bring color to patio pots and garden borders, and the stems also work in cut-flower arrangements. ## Flowers and foliage The [Proven Winners cultivar profile](https://www.provenwinners.com/plants/zantedeschia/be-my-first-love-calla-lily-zantedeschia) identifies First Love as the ‘Fantasia’ selection and lists hot-pink flowers, green foliage, and an upright habit. Its Be My® series blooms for six to eight weeks in the garden; the spathe can remain decorative for longer. ## Placement and watering Grow in sun or part sun in well-drained soil. Keep moisture consistent, particularly after planting, without leaving roots standing in water. Proven Winners lists zones 8a–12b and recommends the plant for borders, containers, landscape use, and cut flowers. Controlled-release fertilizer can be useful during active growth. ## Maintenance Snap off spent or damaged spathe stems when they become untidy. In a pot, a snug root space can encourage more blooms; protect containers when temperatures fall below the plant’s hardiness.
