Fascinating shade-loving, tuberous perennial, flowering in early summer. From hooded green spathes, emerges a long and tortuous, grey-green spadix. Before they emerge, the flowers and foliage are entwined together and unfurl like an otherworldly insect. It can be variable in colour, height and form and is more robust than many other arisaema but is a fantastic addition to a dappled shade border. Followed by clusters of bright orange fruits.
Potted tubers are sent from April-May onwards (once rooted), each pot containing one large flowering size tuber (occasionally two smaller).
