Arisaema concinnum

A Himalayan cobra lily of mid- to high-elevation forest, from Nepal and northern India to Tibet, Yunnan and Myanmar. It grows through the cool, very wet summer monsoon and spends the cold, dry winter as a dormant tuber, so it suits a cool-temperate shade garden or a cool, bright room rather than a warm tropical setup.
