Description
1x tuber of Arisaema purpureogaletum W/O 7034. Tuber size is around 3-4cm diameter. This is not yet flowering sized and it will likely need another years growth before flowering.
Seeds were originally collected and distributed by Bjornar Olsen and Auguste Wu, and this collection number is W/O 7034. The original name given to the seeds was Arisaema franchetianum. However, Arisaema purpureogaletum is a more accurate name, with the downward pointing spadix and extended spathe limb being diagnostic.
Arisaema purpureogaletum is closely related to Arisaema fargesii, Arisaema franchetianum and Arisaema candidissimum, and will make an excellent garden subject in light shade and a good quality well drained soil.
