Other Information
One plant amongst plants of Wild Arum, so presumably the latter was the female parent. The featured image and the one showing marked (hybrid) and unmarked leaves (Wild Arum) were taken in the Great Dell. The other photograph was taken in the main part of the gardens. Years ago these plants had leaves with the vieins silvery white as in the examples at the top of the photo. The ones below show evidence of hybridization with the native plant.
