Zantedeschia plant height

Zantedeschia Spreng.

Plant height is a key morphological indicator for Zantedeschia, determining its intended use, planting density, and lodging resistance.

In the reference 86 varieties crop Arum-lily, where this is mentioned in the description.

Zantedeschia height is measured at the full flowering stage from the soil surface to the tip of the highest inflorescence or leaf. In official international DUS (distinctness, uniformity, and stability) tests, this trait is recorded without the use of growth regulators, which could distort natural indicators.

Cultivar height varies from low-growing forms up to 50 cm, used as pot plants, to tall representatives, primarily descendants of Zantedeschia aethiopica, reaching 1.5 m. Excessive height combined with a weak root system or improper planting depth can lead to lodging.

This trait directly determines cultivation techniques: tall varieties require increased spacing to prevent shading, while plants with strong, long peduncles are preferred for cut flower production. In pot plant production, compactness is the primary selection criterion.
