Arum hygrophilum

Arum hygrophilum is scattered, it is found in Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria, Morocco and Cyprus. Due to urbanization and agriculture, the stocks in nature are endangered.

I acquired my first tuber of this species at the end of 2015, and it bloomed the following February 2016.

These first pictures come from the time of pot culture with the first flowering.
After that, I planted this arum:

This arum has a very beautiful delicate flower. It is said to be a very frost-hardy species. However, the first foliage that had drifted outdoors before this flowering was frozen at -9°C. After that, however, the plant moved on again and flowered.
This year I bought another tuber of this kind in Holland, which has now been planted and is in the cold house.
