Arum italicum ‘Pictum’ is, in my mind, essential in any garden where it is hardy. This perennial sends out its foliage in the late fall and remains green all winter.

Because you are essential to me, and I trust EVERYTHING you say, and I don’t have this plant; it’s now on my list to plant !! Thank you.
Susanne & I are coming to see your daffodils, when will they be ready?
Garden & Be Well, XO Tara
Ditto what Tara said! I’d love to have this in my front yard instead of the awful grass. It’s lovely.
Will Arum italicum grow in red clay with full sun? I have plenty of that! I need more shade so I can plant more. Maybe when spring is here you can come over and instruct me on some small inexpensive things to do.:)
Dear Sandra, Ah yes, the ‘Lords and Ladies’!! I should not wish to be without this splendid, unfussy and endlessly accommodating perennial. And, as yoyu say, its foliage makes a perfect partner to so many spring flowers.
A rather belated but warmly sent Happy New Year!!
Thank you! I am in zone 7 and anything that stays green all winter is a gift.
Best,
Liz
