Jack In The Pulpit

Arisaema triphyllum

Jack In The Pulpit (Arisaema triphyllum) is a landscape plant valued for its form and structure as much as its bloom. It reaches roughly 1.5 ft at maturity and blooms in early summer. Match it to full sun to part shade and keep the root zone consistently moist. One caveat worth knowing before you plant: parts of this species carry a toxicity flag (low), so keep it away from pets and kids who chew on landscape plants. Given a spot that matches its light and water needs, it is a dependable, low-drama addition to the yard.
