Description
1x seed packet containing 10x seeds of Arisaema lobatum, an introduction originally from Chen Yi under the number A-50.
A very rarely offered species, Arisaema lobatum is highly variable in the wild. Typically, spathes are light brown with vertical banding. Stems and petioles are often attractively mottled. Hardiness is unknown or untested in the UK, but with such rare material, I personally would be unwilling to risk them outside! Grow in a well drained compost in light shade.
Detailed seed sowing instructions can be found in our Cultivaion Advice pages.

Agave montana Seeds
1 x Agave montana seed packet containing 10 seeds.
Agave montana is a Mexican species with stiff and spiny deep green leaves. Over the past few years, Agave montana has taken the horticultural world by storm as it is both easy to grow and can take cold and frosty temperatures with ease.
Sow the seeds on the surface of a well drained compost. When larger, plants can be planted outdoors in a very well drained gritty or gravelly soil in full sun. Although this species is very cold hardy, it is well recommended to place a rain cover over the plant during the winter months. Excessive moisture or snow freezing in the crown can sometimes cause problems.
Arisaema consanguineum Seeds
1x seed packet containing 10x Arisaema consanguineum Seeds
Arisaema consanguineum is a widespread and variable species. Elegant and easy to please, this makes an easy garden plant.
These seeds have been collected from plants here growing in the open garden, and consequently are open pollinated (ie, hybridisation cannot be ruled out). However, no other Arisaema are grown in close proximity to these plants, so cross pollination seems unlikely.
Spathes are greenish in colouration with hints of brown.
Arisaema fargesii Seeds
1x seed packed containing 10x Arisaema fargesii seeds.
Arisaema fargesii is an unfussy and vigorous species. The flattish pinky brown tubers multiply easily through small offsets.
The spathe is strongly hooded and striped brown and white, with the spadix hidden deep inside. Eventually, Arisaema fargesii can reach large proportions. The leaf will be 'tear shaped' (hastate) in young plants. As the tuber increases in size, this leaf becomes trifoliate.

Zantedeschia jucunda Seeds
1x seed packet containing 10 seeds of Zantedeschia jucunda.
Zantedeschia jucunda, commonly known as the 'Yellow Arum Lily', is a superb species of Arum Lily from the Sekhukuneland mountains in the North East of South Africa. The true species is not common - this plant was originally introduced into cultivation by the late Rod and Rachel Saunders of Silverhill Seeds of South Africa.
Making bright yellow urn-shaped flowers, this is an especially beautiful Arum Lily. Fully hardy in an unheated greenhouse, we have not tested it outside unprotected yet, however, it should be hardy in a normal UK winter provided that the soil is not too wet for the colder months.
Zantedeschia jucunda seeds germinate readily - soak the seeds for 24 hours and sow into a regular seed potting mix. Gentle bottom heat aids germination.
