Need a hard to find plant
« on: March 24, 2008, 08:31:21 PM »
Anyone know where I can find 'peltandra sagittifolia' White arrow arum (not the green)? here is a sample picture http://www.horticopia.com/hortpix/html/pb15381.htm and here as well http://www.wildflower.org/plants/result.php?id_plant=PESA7

I have the green version and I would like to mix in the white.

Wow stumped the best of you....that is saying something.  Well maybe you all wouldn't mind helping me research it. It is known by a few names;
Peltandra Sagittifolia (Michx.) Morong, White Arrow Arum, Spoonflower..... See if we can find one. Andy

Definitely not native on this coast or I'd have seen them. We've got skunk cabbage though.  :o
