Field Notes

Description:

Green Arum-like leaves with attractive pink and white marks. White spadix flower. that to the devout look like a Cobra's hood above a manifestation of Lord Shiva.

Habitat:

Potted plant. This used to be the commonest varieties in the gardens when I was a child...now there is bewildering variety...but tI like this variety a lot.

Notes:

Caladiums are grown for their attractive foliage.
