Arum italicum var. pictum, Italian Arum, Araceae

Genus and species: 
Arum italicum var. pictum
Common Name: Italium Arum
Family Name: Araceae

This plant is an interesting one. The foliage happens all winter, and flowers happen in the summer. It loves shade, and as a member of the Araceae family, the flowers are shaped like Jack and the pulpit.

Photos taken March 14, 2012 at Virginia Tech in the Hahn Horticulture Gardens.
