Commonly known as Cobra Lily or Jack in the Pulpit, the Arisaema is an unusual plant with umbrella-like blooms that are supported by its tall, strong stems. Blooming in early summer, these excellent flowers will thrive in partial-shade and well-draining soil. The rich burgundy colored bloom with white stripes will create a fantastic, eye-catching display in the summer garden.
How to Plant
- Find a spot with partial-shade and well-draining soil.
- Work the soil well to loosen any compacted areas.
- You may incorporate compost or leaf mold for extra nutrition.
- Plant the Arisaema bulbs 4-6" inches deep.
- Water lightly after planting to settle.
How to Care
- Keep your plants lightly moist, but not wet, throughout the growing season.
- Use a thick mulch to provide insulation throughout the winter.
- Withhold watering in the winter months and keep them dry.
