Great suggestion, Mystery. I don't think enough people use plants like this, though just about everybody has a darkish, moist corner where a few would flourish.

Wonderful photos. Thanks for sharing. It reminds me of a huge Jack in the pulpit that I had at my old house. I really should get some here. I definitely do have some darkish moist corners, and even a cedar bush to help.

That reminds me to beg some seeds off my neighbour.

I thought they were an endangered plant species? I have a cabin in the West Quebec Gatineaus and they grow by the creek on my land, in semi darkness - but I also have Clay Pipes, also an endangered plant (according to my little book of Canadian wild flowers). I purchased from a nursery something called rarum italicum (I think) that looks like a Jack-in-the... and grows in the same conditions.
