Arisaema candidissimum white-form
Description:
Selected from a species native to western China, this rare white-flowered form retains the distinctive character of the cobra lilies that inhabit woodland slopes and mountain regions of Asia. It produces striking white flowers with green striping at the base, held above bold, divided foliage. Emerging late in spring, it quickly comes into leaf and flower, gradually forming sizeable clumps. Adapted to rich, well-drained soils, it thrives in partial shade.
