So far Judy, of the temperate non-aquatic aroids, I know of Arisaema triphyllum
(in several varieties), stewardsonii (which I have grown and bloomed, and
appears very different from triphyllum) and draconteum. The skunk cabbages,
Lyso-something or other, have at least one eastern and one pacific northwestern
member. This is what all I know of right now and hope that other members of our
organization can add to our knowledge.
