I was surprised how much green this had on it when I saw it today. Does anyone know if it is a native type? It looks more attractive than the store-bought Arrowhead potted plant that I have in my house. Tim
Arum italicum I believe. Invasive in some areas. http://www.missouribotanicalgarden....nder/plant-details/kc/y760/arum-italicum.aspx
Forms patches, much to the annoyance of those who want everything to remain a small clump, tuft or bush.
Most folks don't mind a plant with a mind of it's own until it invades native areas. http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/ma-ipc/messages/3019?threaded=1&m=e&var=1&tidx=1
I cannot agree, in fact there was recently a post elsewhere asking about this plant, the gardener being dismayed to find it coming up over a large part of her recently purchased Oregon property. If it were as frequent there would surely be as many posts griping about it as those mentioning bluebells (Hyacinthoides x massartiana).
