Aroids: Plants of the Arum Family

[Al Wootten]

I think Deni's book, 2nd ed, is a very good descriptive treatment.  For
Arisaema you should have The Genus Arisaema ~ Guy Gusman & Liliane
Gusman which is steep but can be purchased used for about $40.  And
please consider joining us in the IAS.

Clear skies,
Al
