Arum (ancient name). Araceae. Wild Ginger. Tuber-bearing low herbs, of few species, in Eu. and W. Asia, most of them grown in pots.
 +
 
 +
Lvs. simple, the petiole sheathed at the base: spathe convolute, variously colored, mostly including the short spadix; pistillate fls. at the base. Monogr. by Engler in DeCandolle's Monographiae Phanerogamarum, Vol. II. Arums are grown usually as oddities, mostly under the general name of callas. Some of the species are hardy; others, as A. palaestinum, are tender, and require glasshouse treatment. The kinds are managed in essentially the same way as the fancy-leaved caladiums. Plant the tubers sufficiently deep that roots may form from near the top. Give rich soil, and water freely when growing or in bloom. The hardy species should be well mulched in late fall. They thrive best in partially shaded places and in rich soil. Propagation is by natural offsets; also by seeds or berries, which some species produce freely. Some of the species are acrid- poisonous.
