Sauromatum horsfieldii Miq
Sauromatum horsfieldii, known as Horsfield's sauromatum, is an aroid native to regions from Assam to southern China, Indo-China, Sumatra, and the Lesser Sunda Islands. It features broad, dark green, arrow-shaped leaves and a unique inflorescence with a pale green spathe and club-shaped spadix that emits a subtle scent to attract pollinators. Thriving in humid, forested environments with well-drained, organic-rich soils, it prefers partial shade. Propagation is typically through division of its tuberous rhizome. While not widely available in mainstream nurseries, it is sought after by collectors and botanical enthusiasts.
