Huge in every way including the reddish black spike which is surrounded by a similar colored leaf-like sheath, making the spike look like it has been provided its own vase; the leopard spotted decorative stem supports large fingered leaves that spread out like a fan; great for the tropical garden; very late spring flowering, followed by scarlet berries; very striking but shouldn't be planted near a doorway as its few days of unpleasant fragrance may keep your friends away! full sun to partial shade; zones 6-9.
