Description Fine Print
 
It's funny how we ignore our native skunk cabbage or swamp lantern (Lysichiton americanum) when the Brits make such stunning use of it in their gardens. A harbinger of spring in the wild, moist places of BC, these swamp lanterns lift their large, golden yellow spathes in early spring followed by large "tropical" foliage up to 3 feet feet long. Moist soil, bog gardens or containers without drainage.
