I will keep a close eye on the two plants as winter comes to her end and spring will take over the stimulation and protection of their further growth.<BR/><BR/>We'll each keep track of our plants in your back garden and on my back road. :)Yoke,https://www.blogger.com/profile/02596190126355462132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494925611676687515.post-8835153547804672512009-01-16T09:43:00.000+00:002009-01-16T09:43:00.000+00:00The plants with the variegated leaves are probably...The plants with the variegated leaves are probably the same species as those with the large plain leaves.

Yesterday I saw them also in another blog; a garden in Iowa or something like that where they come up in autumn already. <BR/><BR/>I'm still surprised to find 2 different species-the variegated and the plain-large leaved one- this close together, almost as in the one clump. Will keep a close eye on them. <BR/><BR/>Arum Lilies are growing all over here, Eire's damp climate is ideal for these to grow in the wild.Yoke,https://www.blogger.com/profile/02596190126355462132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494925611676687515.post-82955242757185685452009-01-12T21:23:00.000+00:002009-01-12T21:23:00.000+00:00I recognise those plants with the arrow-shaped lea...I recognise those plants with the arrow-shaped leaves because they grow in my garden.<BR/><BR/>I think they are a variety of <I>Arum italicum</I>.<BR/><BR/>See http://www.bbc.co.uk/gardening/plants/plant_finder/plant_pages/69.shtmlAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5494925611676687515.post-16495862174514446412009-01-10T21:15:00.000+00:002009-01-10T21:15:00.000+00:00Thanks girls.
