Description

Arum maculatum, also known as Lords-and-Ladies, is a robust and adaptable native species commonly found in Irish woodlands and hedgerows. It offers early spring interest with its unusual green spathes and dark spadices, followed by eye-catching spikes of bright orange-red berries in summer.

Its arrow-shaped, often spotted leaves appear in late winter, making it a valuable early-season addition to shaded or semi-shaded planting schemes. Particularly suited for naturalistic and biodiversity-friendly projects, Arum maculatum thrives in moist, humus-rich soils and establishes well under trees, in parks, and heritage landscapes.

Ideal for rewilding and pollinator-friendly landscapes.
