Re: Arum ID please - bought as palaestinum

Hi Bernhard,

 

This is Arum italicum – hope the aroider didn’t spend too much to buy for what is a garden weed in much of southern Europe…

Aroiders,

 

a fellow aroider from our German forum

( http://www.amorphophallus-forum.de/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1513 - sorry pictures only visible for registered people)

got via ebay an Anrum palaestinum, which was probably misslabled.

 

Candidates are:

A. concinnatum, but spadix is probaly too short for this...

A. italicum, since anthers are yellow, not purple; but if it is italiucum, which ssp.?

 

Please have a look at the attached pictures.

 

Happy ID-ing, Bernhard.
