Bulbs: Arum italicum info?, 1 by podster

I received some of these bulbs and am casting about for information. Has anyone here grown them? The DG search is down so couldn't find info that way.

I find they are slow growing but have an incredible root system. I was unsure where I wanted to plant them so kept them potted. The roots are coming out the drainage holes. I need to put them in ground for sure.

Meanwhile, the leaves have remained smaller than I expected. Do they require poor soil? Or need fertilizer? They are pretty and are not affected by freezes.

Any knowledge will be appreciated... pod
