Quart Pot
One of the most sought-after Jack-in-the-Pulpits with simple large leaves and the flowers of sweetly scented virginal white. I'm not sure I can use 'virginal white' to describe a flower sporting a spadix but I guess eventually the twain shall meet. The spadix is the appendage inside the flower or spathe if you want to get botanical. This is one of the latest of the Arisaemas to poke its nose out in the spring and we invariably start worrying about it and just as we are about to do exploratory troweling, we notice growth buds breaking the surface. These are nice bulbs which probably need another year to flower. This species increases beautifully from offsets so in a few years you will have a nice little grouping.

These are young seedlings ( with bulbs about the size of a quarter) of this superior form of a Himalayan species known only from a small population in Sikkim. This is larger in stature in all aspects than the typical species with its purplish hooded flowers being up to 2x larger than normal. The big trifoliate leaves are held by wonderfully reticulated stems. This form was named 'Himalayan Giant' by Tony Avent. This likes a moist rich soil but no water-logging and appreciates a good mulch to keep frost from the bulbs in colder areas. In our shade garden where every square inch is coveted space, we get double duty from our planting of this Arisaema speciosum by interplanting with Corydalis solida. The Corydalis is very hardy and is planted above the Arisaema and blooms in early spring and then goes dormant politely disappearing just as the Arisaema starts to make growth in late spring.

Newer selection from Virginia which has leaves intricately detailed in white veining. Excellent increaser with very good vigor and one of the best foliage forms of the triphyllums. Pale green/white flowers are a bit ghostly and are a treat in the quiet of early morning. Very hardy - Trillium/Primrose conditions. Naturally small bulbs.
