ARUM DRACONTIUM. 
Class. Order. 
MONOECIA POLYANDRIA. 
This p!ant is found in shady woods near 
Philadelphia, also from Virginia to Florida. 
It flowered with us in July, the stem being 
about two feet in height. In this country 
it is very seldom seen, though it was known 
and cultivated by Miller, in the Chelsea 
rden. 
It should be potted in loam and peat, 
and placed in the shade, and may some- 
times be increased by offsets.
