Arisaema (Greek- made name, of no particular significance). Araceae. Indian Turnip. Dragon Arum. Odd hooded aroids, sometimes grown in hardy borders and some species as pot-plants.

About 60 widely distributed herbs, with tuberous roots, and a spathe rolled in or convolute about the spadix below, and often arched over it: fls. unisexual, the pistillate on the lower part of the spadix, and each consisting of a 1-loculed ovary, and generally ripening into a showy berry. Some species are native, and several of them are hardy in the open; others are cult. under cover, as recommended for Arum (which see).

Lf. solitary, with 3 lfts.: spathe purple inside. India.— A. Griffithii, Schott. Lvs. 2; lfts. 3, nearly orbicular: spathe very large with a spreading and wrinkled limb several inches broad, and rich purple with green veins. India.—One of the handsomest of all arisaema.—A. japonicum, Blume. Lvs. pedate: spathe green, white striped.—A. nepenthoides. Mort. Lf. pedate, of 5 narrow Ifts. : spathe auricled. India..—A. ringens, Schott. Lfts. 3, ovate-acuminate: spathe purple, arched. Japan. Perhaps hardy in the open.—A. Sieboldii. De Vriese.-A. ringens.—A.speciosum, Mort.
