Darrell "Mr Epimedium" Probst found a variegated skunk cabbage in the
woods of Pennsylvania a number of years (6 to 8?) ago. It was similar to
the one described, with a wide gold band, and was definitely reminiscent
of a hosta. He said it was visible from the road, and he had driven by
it a number of times before spotting it.
The last I heard it had been shipped to a nursery in North Carolina,
never to be seen again....

Global cooling update: an inch or two of wet snow fell on the
Symplocarpus blooms this afternoon...
