Green dragon (Arisaema dracontium)

The green dragon (*Arisaema dracontium*) is a perennial herb found in Eastern and Central Canada. It features red-orange berries that attract birds, and its distinctive flower spike looks similar to a lizard's tongue. The genus name *Arisaema* comes from the Greek words "aris," meaning arum, and "aima," meaning red, alluding to the red patches seen on the leaves of some species.
