Huge, arrow-shaped, glossy, dark green leaves with the most beautiful yellow, peachy apricot spathes (flowers) rising above the foliage, ‘Cancun’ is a fiery beauty! This unusual, large arum lily particularly loves moist shade and rich soil, making a striking architectural statement at the edge of a pond or a boggy bank. Its feet can be submerged in water, and it can be left outside in most frost-prone areas if it is given a deep winter mulch. - Garden care: Keep really well watered during the warm weather, or grow as a marginal plant on the edges of a pond. Keep just moist in winter. In frost-prone areas, apply a generous layer of mulch during the colder weather to help protect the roots.
- Humans/Pets: Harmful if eaten; skin/eye irritant
