Dear All; Jamie's photos remind me. 'The Genus Arum' by Peter Boyce is the authority on Arum and he describes the foliage of this species as anything from deep green to spotted and sometimes the spots that are 'bullate'. The color plate shows these spots as forming discrete blisters or 'scars. I have grown quite a few of these and have never seen one show these dark pits or blisters. Spotted forms are especially attractive to me. Yet there are no name cultivars, but the dozens of synonyms given tells of this variation. Does anyone grow this species with 'deep' pits for the dark spots? There is a cultivar called 'Painted Lady' which I have ordered a couple of times and it has neither been 'painted' (i.e. splotched in yellow) as advertised or even this species. Anyone familiar with the true cv? I admit to a mild case of arum-itis and love this species which requires more shade than most others. Thanks Jim W. -- Dr. James W. Waddick 8871 NW Brostrom Rd.
