Jack in the Pulpit Arisaema triphyllum 10 Seeds

Arisaema triphyllum, commonly known as Jack-in-the-pulpit, is a distinctive woodland perennial native to eastern North America, recognized for its unusual and dramatic flowering structure. Emerging in spring from a corm, it bears one or two glossy leaves, each divided into three leaflets—hence the species name triphyllum. The inflorescence consists of a hooded spathe, often green or striped with purples and browns, arching protectively over the spadix—the “Jack” inside the “pulpit.” After flowering, female plants produce tight clusters of bright red berries in late summer, adding a splash of color to the forest floor. Preferring moist, shaded habitats and rich soils, this plant has evolved clever strategies to attract and temporarily trap insects for pollination, embodying both botanical curiosity and subtle woodland beauty.
