Arisaema quinatum, the Indian turnip or jack-in-the-pulpit, is a plant species in the Araceae. It is native to the southeastern United States from Texas and Florida north to Kentucky and Virginia.[1][2]
Arisaema quinatum has long been regarded as a variety of or synonym of the more widespread A. triphyllum.[3] Recent authors, however, have advocated recognizing it is a distinct species.[1][4][5][6][7]
