Hi; thank you for clearing up the Arum italicum question.  There is always
a little name-shuffling going on, no matter what genus.  I have another
question:  Three and four years ago, respectively, I planted seeds for
Arisaema sikokianum.  Each year, one plant grew strong enough to plant out.
 This past summer, both plants were about the same size (4-5") and seemed
to have a normal life cycle, but I am concerned that they remain so small
(and of course haven't flowered).  How long does it take them to grow to
adult size, and in hiw many years will they flower, more or less?  Thanks
for any information.
