Sowing
Sow once the soil is warmer than 10 °C, in a sunny spot sheltered from the wind. Sow about three times as deep as the seed is thick, into finely raked soil with no clods on top. Spacing is as printed on the packet — thin the seedlings out after they come up. Water with a fine spray so the seed is not washed away, and keep only the strongest plants.
Description
A perennial, herbaceous, tuberous and evergreen plant. Ornamental foliage, interesting and unusual flowering, and showy red berries appearing in late summer and autumn.
The leaf is large and sometimes reaches 30 cm, smooth and leathery, with beautiful marbled colouring.
In the summer heat the foliage disappears for a while and reappears in autumn, with the arum overwintering with its leaves.
Fully frost-hardy for our conditions. Height up to 30 cm, width 20-30 cm. Thrives in fertile, moderately moist soil, in shade and partial shade.
How to grow
The arum: Is a spring-flowering plant with showy foliage that does not freeze even in winter.
The undersides of the leaves turn yellow-green in summer and orange-red in winter.
The arum prefers rich, moist soils.
Combines well with other perennials around trees and tall shrubs.
Survives down to (- 5) degrees in winter. You need to protect the tuber if you do not lift it from the ground.
