Arum diotalicum Love Child Nothoscordum named in honor of entomologistArum x diotalicum 'Love Child' is our second Plant Delights JLBG introduction of a hybrid between Arum italicum and Arum dioscoridis. The fall emerging foliage resembles Arum italicum with the typical silver vein pattern on the foliage. In mid April, when the flowers emerge, the hybrid nature becomes obvious due to the fascinating, light lavender spotted spathe.
