Robin,

this is what just bloomed from an incorrectly IDed tuber.  I would call it A. speciosum.  Sound right?

Jamie,

What is the leaf like?  I find that speciosum is a very distinctive leaf.
Cheers.

Paul,

here is the leaf.  Other than being large, it seemed to fit species of this section.  But then, Arisaemas are a new passion for me.

Jamie,

That looks like what I have as speciosum anyway (assuming it is correct).  Very distinctive leaf, unlike anything else I grow in the Arisaema range, although I by no means grow all of them.

Jamie,

It is definitely A. speciosum. Arisaema galeatum and dahaiense have also cylindrical tubers and similar leaves but very different flowers.

Any ideas about this species? I received it as A. fraternum, but it doesn't seem to be that species. The whole plant is about 30cm, but they might grow bigger if I planted them out. The nearest I can get is A ciliatum var liubaense.

It's certainly very like A. ciliatum. I'm not sure whether mine are that or c. var liubiense and I don't know what the difference is any way. I received mine as seed, as consanguineum. I think ciliatum is the most elegant thing in my garden. Planted out they grow to about 80cms for me but could be more in a damper place.

My greenhouse seems to be filling up with Arisaemas at the moment.

These are very nice Diane. Nepenthoides is one of my favourites and the only one, except consanguineum, that regularly sets seed.
