About

Amydrium medium is an epiphytic/hemiepiphytic, vining flowering plant in the arum (aroid) family, Araceae, that is native to Southeast Asia.

In modern times, Amydrium medium has become more well-known and obtainable on the plant market, largely thanks to tissue culture. Along with the type species, with its typical green leaves, several cultivars have been developed, including the teal-blue, light-gray foliage of A. medium 'Silver', or the web-like patterning of A. medium 'Spiderman'. There are also few variegated forms, such as the white-and-green marbling of 'Albo Variegata' or the lime-green and yellow-"swirled" foliage of 'Galaxy' and 'Mint'.

Where it grows

Amydrium medium's native range is west from mainland Southeast Asia (Cambodia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Singapore, Thailand) and east through certain islands of Indonesia and the Philippines.
