Karen conn on Aug 24, 2012walter and douglas, thank u both for the information.i did research w/your imput and it is voodoo lily, devils tongue, and has a few other nick names too. so now i wondered what my "voodoo lily" really was cause it is wild looking, but nothing like the plant we were talking about in my picture. well it is a arum - corntum. it has a spotted long leaf and a spike coms up from the inside of that. now i have the correct name for both,thanks.Helpful Reply

Douglas Hunt on Aug 25, 2012Glad you've sorted them out, Karen. You definitely cultivate some unusual plants! You must bring them indoors for the winter in Pennsylvania.Helpful Reply
