Arisaema dracontium
green dragon
This plant is quite unique, related to Jack in the pulpit, but with leaflets splayed out horizontally like a dragon's wings and a flowering structure called a spadix which lashes out from its hood like a tongue or a tail. Expect this shade-lover to go dormant in summer.
