The Arum Lily is one of the world’s most iconic and widely known plants. Native to Southern Africa, these long-lived flowers have been described with adjectives from the poetic: such as elegant, secretive, exotic, and expressive, to the mundane: decorative.
Naturalized in the India’s Western Ghats, the flowers have 2 large curved petals that form a funneled heart shape.
