Arum Italicum
M5161
Description
Known as ‘Lords and Ladies’, Arum ‘Italicum’ is a sculptural groundcover plant with year-round garden interest.
Large, waxy, spear-shaped foliage with a marbled surface is held by the plants all year round, complemented with greenish-white hooded flower spathes in spring, and brilliant orange-red (toxic) berries in autumn.
This fascinating, clump-forming perennial is perfect for naturalising in shaded or sunny areas and prefers damp, well-drained fertile soil.
Arum ‘Italicum’ has been granted a prestigious Award of Garden Merit for its winning attributes and long season of interest.
Plant as a striking, enchanting green carpet in a woodland garden, or beneath a hedge or large shrub.
