Arisaema speciosum, the Hooded Beauty of the Cobra Lilies, is a species measuring up to 60 cm. It is native from the Himalayas. It is very hardy, easy to grow and early to emerge. In Latin, speciosum means “of a beautiful aspect”. All the parts of this plant are toxic.
The thick and fleshy stalk emerges in early June, adorned by a single tropical-looking palmate leaf near the top. As the leaf unfurls, the pitcher that tops the stem opens to reveal a dark and mysterious flower, with a small curly tongue. The flower is of a striking dark purple color with white-pinkish stripes. The flowers are dioecious, individual flowers are either male or female, but only one sex is to be found on any one plant.
Hardiness zones 5-9, (-26°C/-15°F, -5°C/25°F) in winter. Enjoys a moist, fertile, well-drained, neutral to acidic soil in a cool, shady site. - See more at: http://www.rarexoticseeds.com/en/all-seeds/arisaema-speciosum-seeds-big-leaf-jack-himalayan-giant.html#sthash.d99D3xZQ.dpufArisaema speciosum, the Hooded Beauty of the Cobra Lilies, is a species measuring up to 60 cm.
