Genus of 8 species of evergreen, root-clinging climbers, with juvenile and adult phases, found in forest from S.E.Asia to W. Pacific. Epipremnum is a climber with aerial roots - a moss stick makes an ideal support. The stems are sometimes allowed to trail from a hanging basket or wall display. Keep the plant away from draughts. All parts may cause severe discomfort if ingested, and contact with the sap of Epipremnum aureum may irritate skin.
