[Erick Adams]

It's likely triphyllum ssp. triphyllum. Ventral leaf surfaces are glaucous (blue-toned).Its stature, spathe color & shape make it look a bit like the stewardsonii around, but the ribbing on the spathe isn't pronounced. They grow intermingled but without a lotof intergrades about 1/2 a km behind my home.
