From: "Marek Argent" <abri1973 at wp.pl> on 2009.07.11 at 23:31:25(19501) Certainly a few species of Lemna and Spirodela ;) but you mean the larger ones. I think Calla palustris and Arum maculatum, maybe some other species of Arum gone wild from horticulture.

From: <ju-bo at msn.com> on 2009.07.12 at 09:44:08(19503) Dear Mark, Yes, at least a couple species of the genus Arum, and several introduced genera. Get a copy of Deni Bown`s ''Aroids, plants of the arum family'' and stop working ''blind'', it is a FANTASTIC source of knowledge on all things aroid-related.   Worth its weight in gold to me.

From: "mossytrail" <mossytrail at hctc.com> on 2009.07.13 at 01:28:27(19506) Yes -- the nominate species of the Araceae! Arum maculatum. It has various colloquial names, including lords-and-ladies and cuckoo-pint. +More > Date: Fri, 10 Jul 2009 14:16:05 +0100 > From: Mark Pajak > Subject: [Aroid-l] UK Aroids > To: > Message-ID: > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" > > > Just a quick question - Are there any Aroids native to the > UK? > _______________________________________________ Aroid-L mailing list Aroid-L@www.gizmoworks.com http://www.gizmoworks.com/mailman/listinfo/aroid-l

From: Deni Bown <denibown at googlemail.com> on 2009.07.21 at 17:04:14(19583) Thanks to Peter for this definitive statement on aroids native to the UK. May I also add that I have also found naturalized populations of Lysichiton americanus together with L. camtschatcensis and their cream-colored hybrid. The photos of these two species in my book Aroids - Plants of the Arum Family were taken in in wet woodland on the Hampshire-Berkshire border. They had spread downstream from a large garden where they were originally planted as ornamentals beside the section of stream that ran through the property. This should perhaps serve as a warning to anyone whose land borders on natural watercourses. They're a magnificent sight but they don't belong in the wild. Recently, on the field trip to the Haut Chitelet Alpine Botanical Garden during the Xth International Aroid Conference, I noticed Lysichiton seedlings downstream from the main garden. It would be interesting to know how long it takes plants such as these to get up to mischief and how they change the ecology of the habitats they invade.
