Description
By relative inflorescence height, Arum species are divided into "cryptic" species, whose inflorescences are borne on a short peduncle amid or below the leaves, and "flag" species, whose inflorescences are above leaf level at the end of long peduncles. A. hygrophilum is a flag species. The species has a white inner spathe, which has purple accents. The small spadix is a dark purple color.
