Description
Pure white to pale mint-cream with a much elongated, hanging spadix of yellow. The stunning appearance of this plant is not its sole appeal, as it is also delightfully fragrant (of lemons) – a very rare feature in the genus.
A. saxatile is a small plant but when happy it is clump-forming and readily propagates. It is one of the best of the new introductions. May. Originally from Hubei, China but happy here in Wales in a leafy, humus-rich, well drained soil in half shade or partial sun. Warm, humid conditions seem to suit it well when in growth.
