This is one of the tallest Arisaemas; the white-green-lilac flowers (usually) tower 1-1.5 meters above the palmate leaves. The spadix (or club) grows into a long, upright tail. Give them very humus-rich soil and plant them confidently 10-20 cm deep for sturdy growth. After flowering, beautiful thick clusters of red berries appear in autumn. This species is found in the wild mainly in the Indian subcontinent.
