You can find descriptions of the Arum and the Libertia on the Cotswold
Garden Flowers site at http://www.cgf.net/list.html. I find this the best
site for looking up unusual plants - and if you've never come across Bob
Brown, definitely a larger than life character, it is worth reading his
plant descriptions.
I know that some cupheas are sold as house plants, so yours might not be
hardy, but otherwise can't help on this. Stylomecon is in the poppy family
(according to The Plant Finder), but can't find it in my perennials books,
so it may be an annual.
Hope this helps
