Guide

The species-level account. Cultivar pages build on this and say where they differ.

Amydrium medium is an aroid in the family Araceae, a group of tropical plants that typically grow as climbing or root-clinging vines in warm, humid forest understory. Give it bright indirect light, away from direct sun, and a chunky, free-draining mix. Water when the top inch or two of mix has dried out, and never leave it sitting in soggy soil, as aroids of this type rot readily when kept wet.

ToxicityAuthoritative · species

Toxic to cats & dogs & humans

Araceae commonly contain insoluble calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause oral and gastrointestinal irritation. This is where toxicity lives: every cultivar of this species inherits it and none can override it.
