Arisaema candidissimum

(COBRA LILY) This is one of the easier of this genus to grow…an herbaceous perennial that emerges as late as May or even June. Erect 12-18” stems bordered on both sides by thrice-lobed wonga (18-24”) leaves and topped with summer pink pitchers with dramatic silver striping, later maturing to striking red seed pods. Does this sound like an alien? It looks like one! Very weird and cool…just give it a spot in rich garden soil and the same culture as hostas and epimedium (light shade, regular moisture) and amaze your friends!
