Zantedeschia elliottiana

Zantedeschia elliottiana, June 24, 2011.  Zantedeschia is commonly known as calla lily.  As one of the family Araceae, each of these three inflorescences is a columnar spadix with hundreds of tiny flowers, surrounded by the pink spathe.  The Mexican artist Diego Rivera used calla lily as an element of many of his paintings, even though Zantedeschia is actually native to South Africa rather than Mexico.
