Arisaema kiushianum starts blooming here Roland Arisaema kiushianum ( photo / image / picture from bulborum's Garden )
Fabulous. Sadly a lot of my Arisaemas seem to have been killed this winter. Not that I have ever had that one though.
My Arisaemas seems to have been killed by the freezing temperatures we had last winter. I've never seen such a beautiful, and unusual, one as yours though. I'd love to have something like that in my garden.
Interesting flower,does it smell like many of those unusual lillies do?The little begonia is nice too.
Hello chocolate also welcome here you are far from home Arisaema's are without any perfume or smell Roland
WOW. nice! In France, huh? I have two Arisaema griffithii that I planted last summer in the garden - shade and wet but nothing coming up yet... I was running out of patience about a few weeks ago and lifted one, and looked ok. Not rotten, no roots, just the corm and two small ones. I tore off the small ones and potted up. When will my arisaemas show signs of life??? Any idea? Roland, I see yours was in a pot. Inside or outside during the winter? Well, I don't know how cold it gets in France in winter... This is the leaf, last year in JUNE... Should I be more patient???
I keep mine always free of frost in pots Till I have enough to test if they are hardy in the garden or not many hardy plants in the garden aren't hardy in pots most Arisaema hate wet feet in the winter if they are dormant and arrive late my Arisaema griffithii flowered when the bulb was 5 cm diameter in normal winter it's here -8ºC sometimes -13ºC the record here at home -18ºC Roland
Wow. Thanks Roland. Maybe I did a mistake or not, planting them out in the garden. They were quite expensive, only two but I read somewhere they are quite hardy. As I told you, a few weeks ago, after the cold winter, I checked one...and it looked OK. not rotten, but no roots at all! I will let you know if any leaves come up! CALIN
some are very hardy other hardly so control very well before you plant them outside special where you live it can be cold if I remember well Roland
