Calla Lilly

Calla lilies have long been symbols of beauty, purity, and renewal — their name itself comes from the Greek word for “beauty.” Often seen in religious imagery, they represent grace, resurrection, and spiritual rebirth.

Their mythology is just as captivating. Legend says the first calla lilies were born from the spilled milk of Hera as Zeus sought divine strength for Hercules. So perfect were these blooms that Venus, jealous of their beauty, cursed them with a spiky center — a feature ancient cultures later linked to fertility, passion, and sensuality.
