So did a bit more repotting in the glass house,thought a few of you might like to identify what I have been repotting
Some will I am sure know what it is perhaps if you are familiar with it you stay quiet and let the others have fun
OH does not like it even in flower !

It was a bit to easy really it is of course Arisaema have added the picture of it flowering in 2016
Belongs to the family Araceae which takes in the caladium That loosestrife referred to and of course they are loosely known as voodoo lilies not a name I particularly like, andrew I would have been surprised if you had not known.

Did you remove the " Babies " and re-pot them Brian ?

That is beautiful. It has a very attractive corm/bulb too. I was thinking of Dracunculus vulgaris which is every bit as vulgar as its name suggests. It stinks (smells like rotten eggs).
