GEORGE TOWN: A calla lily which many believe can help bring prosperity to its owner has become a hit for those celebrating Chinese New Year.

The flower, called ma piao bian chao piao (from lottery ticket to banknote), could draw in wealth to the family due to its many types of colours which represent the colours of different Malaysian banknotes, says nursery owner Tan Chaik Hong.
