White calla lilies (Zantedeschia aethiopica)! We all know them for their cut flowers, but did you realize they are also a perennial in most of the South? I’ll be honest, I haven’t found many of them growing in abandoned pastures; abandoned pastures seem to be the home for the daffodils and some of their other friends. No, I’ve seen calla lilies growing in the old established gardens of the south that are still taken care of. Why? Normally it is because calla lilies need more water than just the natural rainfall they might receive in a field.

How much water? A lot. Calla lilies are traditionally grown completely submerged in the water. A typical technique is to pot a very rocky soil mixture together in a pot, and sink the pot completely under the water in a fish pond or other decorative pool of water. However, they don’t have to be completely submerged. A regular irrigation system will take care of them. They like it a little more shady and damp, so just remember that when placing them in the garden.

Here at the Southern Bulb Company farm, we’re going to put them with our white rain lilies (Zephyranthes candida) and our native white spider lilies (Hymenocallis liriosme) in the thick clays at the edge of our pond. This will accomplish a couple of things. First, it will keep them in the moist soils they need to thrive. Second, the water helps keep the soil temperatures above freezing, and calla lilies can be sensitive to freezing. Our farm is located in northeast Texas, almost a Zone 7, and I would not recommend trying this bulb north of here.

What about the history of the bulb? While I would like to offer a great pass-a-long story like so many of our other bulbs have, all I can speak to is the wonderful old places I’ve seen them grow. Many of our old world bulbs like the little jonquil sweeties, old fashioned daffodils, Byzantine gladioli, and more came from Mediterranean places such as the south of Spain. Calla lilies come to us from South Africa, not a hot bed of early American immigration. From there though, they were eventually brought to Europe and the United States. Dr. Bill Welch had them in his old home near Monroe, LA for generations and now has them growing in a decorative galvanized feeding trough near Brenham, TX (the home of Blue Bell Ice Cream). I’ve also seen them all over the Island of Jersey, particularly in the fabulous garden of Mrs. Lea where her pond leads up to her famous trompe l’oeil, which I wrote about on the Bulb Hunter Blog here: http://www.bulbhunter.com/2007/07/12/the-isle-of-jersey/.

That should be enough description to get you going. We hope you enjoy and are anxious to put these bulbs into your hands! Don’t worry, they’re quick to multiply!

Nuts and Bolts of Section 8 for Landlords
Format: Paperback
Learned so much from this book. Lots of practical information and entertaining to read. I bought all of the books by this team of do-it- your-selfers. They even include access to a rental contract they advertise as ironclad.

I will order the other. Thank you for sharing you knowledge, expertise and experiences. You really tell people the truth and I wasn't expecting that. I was expecting some truth with alot of BS.

Great, Practical, Real
Format: Paperback
Finally a real estate book that has real, practical tips and methods to go out and get deals done. I almost didn’t read this as in the last few months I have poured through dozens of books and got sick of the “have a solid goal and motivate yourself” or the “this is why real estate is a great investment” that plagues 99% of books in this area while providing no real context. This book should have been my first go-to book. It’s real, authentic, full of real world advice and tips. Read it and you finally get an idea of how to do it from the guys who actually do it. This isn’t a “feel good” book written by an author or journalist. It’s a practical, raw, real-world guide to Section 8 real estate from the guys who have hundreds of units. A must read

Ha! Funny guys!
Man, these guys are a trip! They kept me in stitches! But seriously though, it's packed with enough information to embark on the section 8 landlord business if that's where you want to go. It's got lots of pictures to show what they're talking about and everything. Though it's not 110% complete. If you're really serious about it then you'll need to take some quickie classes on finding beat up homes for cheap. You won't find them all online and I plan to take a couple of quickie classes in real estate. You'll need to be up to code for the rules in your state. But this book is the most packed with information that I know of for the moment. So I consider it a must read. The print quality of the books is tragic, but don't let that stop you from getting your copy. It's all about real people in the business doing it and sharing with they accomplished and how they did it with us. And I appreciate it. And you might die laughing.

A Practical and Encouraging Starting Point for First-Time Investors
Format: Paperback
As someone completely new to real estate and working a 9–5 with limited income, this book felt genuinely reassuring. It doesn’t talk down to beginners or assume you already have a lot of money to invest. The concepts are explained in a simple, practical way that made real estate investing feel possible instead of intimidating. I especially liked how it focused on getting your first deal and managing properties realistically, not just selling a “get rich quick” dream. While it’s clearly written for beginners, it gave me clarity, confidence, and a sense of direction. If you’re starting from scratch and juggling a regular job, this book is a helpful place to begin.
