Odorata is the refined Bokkeveld species arum lily, known for its narrow leaves, clean white spathes, and delicate fragrance in warm weather. Plants are elegant, upright, and long-lived. Odorata has smaller proportions than large cultivars but offers a uniquely graceful look and outstanding durability.

It prefers consistently moist but aerated soil and appreciates sun or part sun. Growth starts modestly and increases each season as the root system matures. Ideal for naturalistic plantings, fragrance borders, and collectors who value species purity.
