Arisaema information

These will be supplied as dormant tubers from autumn through to early spring. They have been propagated by me from either seeds or offsets and whilst I will try to send you flowering sized tubers, these are an unpredictable set of plants and I cannot guarantee that it will happen in the first year that you have them! They make marvellous garden plants as long as a few planting rules are followed. They must NEVER be waterlogged. This is their main enemy. A nice humus-rich well drained hole please, these guys will perform best if you can incorporate any of the following:- Compost, leaf mould, bark. Dappled shade is preferable, although they will tolerate sun quite well.
