Arum italicum, commonly known as Italian Arum, is a striking perennial plant known for its bold, arrow-shaped leaves, showy spathes, and bright red berries. It is a woodland and shade-loving plant that adds year-round interest to gardens, especially in shaded areas where other plants may struggle.

Key Features:

  • Foliage: Deep green, glossy, arrowhead-shaped leaves with striking white or silver veining. The foliage appears in autumn, persists through winter, and dies back in summer.
  • Flowers: In late spring to early summer, it produces pale green or cream-colored hooded flowers (spathes) surrounding a central spike (spadix).
  • Berries: After flowering, clusters of bright red-orange berries emerge, adding ornamental value and attracting birds.
  • Height & Spread: Typically grows 30-45cm tall with a spread of 30-60cm.
  • Wildlife Value: Provides habitat for insects, and birds may feed on the berries. However, all parts of the plant, including the berries, are toxic to humans and pets.

Prefers partial to full shade but can tolerate some sun in cooler climates. Ideal for woodland gardens, underplanting trees, and shaded borders. Thrives in moist, well-drained, humus-rich soil. It tolerates a variety of soils, including clay, loam, and chalk.
