The Calla Lily is often seen in gardens and landscaped areas. It was originally native to South Africa but has found its way to many locations in the earth. Because of superstition, the Calla Lily is viewed by some as associated with death, but to me it is a beautiful design of creation, and is full of life, brightening a yard or garden. This one looks like it has served a meal to some insect or snail.
