Yellow it is, this Thursday!
A quick surfing through the lappy archives and I saw this…
…the Yellow Calla Lily, which added brightness and beauty to the decor at a hotel in Shimla.
They say that yellow calla lilies originated from South Africa. They are about 18-40 inches tall. Each stem has one bloom. They are ideal for bouquets and floralย arrangementsย with an expected vase life of minimum 8 days!
Read somewhere that a yellowย calla lilyย long stemmed bouquet is ideal for a tall bride. As these are tall and slender flowers, so when a tall bride carries it, she will look even more elegant and stylish. Wow!!
And this immediately made me remember the sasural genda phool that are generally used in Indian weddings! ๐
Beautiful yellow.
I have only seen the white ones like this in Brazil..
They are nick-named “copo de leite” meaning- Cup of Milk
This is beautiful .The fact that it is used in a tall bride’s bouquet is very interesting .Never new it .Sasural Genda /Ganda phool (lol). Thanks Shilpa.Have a nice Thursday
@ Shobha : There were whites too in this flower vase and the whole arrangement was damn beautiful! Thanks for sharing the info! ๐
@ Kavita : Thks ๐ LOL @ ‘Ganda phool’ ๐ Yo have a great day too!

That piece of info on the flower is interesting. Great capture.
Beautiful and favorites indeed. I recall Calla Lilies being mentioned in a Nicholas Sparks novel ๐
@ Indrani and Insignia : Thanks! ๐

I would add,” a tall and slim bride…”I guess it will add to the elegance of the lady walking down the aisle.
