Arum palaestinum, Boiss. (A. sanctum, Hort.). Black Calla. Solomon's Lily. Lvs. cordate-hastate, 6 in. broad across the base and about equal in length, the middle lobe broad-ovate and nearly blunt: spathe about the length of the If., with a short green tube, and an elongated lance-oblong tapering limb, which is greenish on the outside and continuous black-purple within, the tip sometimes recurving: spadix shorter than the spathe, the upper part dark-colored. Palestine.—Perhaps the most popular arum at present, being grown in pots as an oddity.
