In and out often and always sore! I am fine, almost ready to post my big reveal of a huge project that has taken up all of my blogging time! Then...on to the Christmas decorating that I am officially a month behind!Tootsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02313167135644565141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-250696550898393522009-12-01T07:39:56.893-06:002009-12-01T07:39:56.893-06:00Hi Sue, thanks for showing us this very nice and i...Hi Sue, thanks for showing us this very nice and interesting plant. It is one of the best for winter interest here, not at all invasive, we may be too dry with the slope for that. I have tried to spread it with poor results, even though my patch came from division from my neighbors. I have tried to plant the seeds from that weird berry stalk with poor success. You have illustrated well how it looks in all seasons, kudos!!!<br /><br />FrancesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-47011930095706011952009-11-30T17:41:54.834-06:002009-11-30T17:41:54.834-06:00I've never grown this arum...I think I may hav...I've never grown this arum...I think I may have arum-envy now, but I'll just enjoy yours, as it would be marginal here at best.

It would be nice to have fresh foliage this late, but it would most likely be buried under snow all winter.Mr. McGregor's Daughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05911409327006498766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-53983776370460017472009-11-30T14:03:51.094-06:002009-11-30T14:03:51.094-06:00Wow.

It was enjoyable to see the different stages throughout the season. I am impressed that you had the forethought to take those pictures.

My daughter got some of the sap on her arm while she was helping me clear some of it (it IS invasive!) and her whole arm ended up looking like it was covered in shingles. It was a trip to the emergency doctor on Boxing Day for us last year.Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06765211976700712553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-40953807612336098872009-11-29T21:52:31.934-06:002009-11-29T21:52:31.934-06:00Hi Sue~~ Would you believe that within my vast, gl...Hi Sue~~ Would you believe that within my vast, gluttonous 12 paged plant list, Arum is MIA? :) I'm not sure why. With my Zone 8 climate it is probably invasive but I long ago found a cure for exuberant plants: containers. I think Arum would look fabulous as part of a foliage ensemble. I love how yours mingles within this corner of the corner garden.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8333330062798605073.post-62809202026122392712009-11-29T21:41:48.698-06:002009-11-29T21:41:48.698-06:00Thats nice to see the arum in the season of fall &...Thats nice to see the arum in the season of fall & winter.<br />I thought all arums are tropical plant, so not so sure about the tip part.<br />One thing for sure, do keep the seeds as you can propagate them in different parts. The may have a bulb like rhizome which you can unearth them and plant more of these bulb in a bigger patch.James Davidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01423981835876393119noreply@blogger.com
