Epipremnum nobile

A root-climbing aroid endemic to Sulawesi, recorded in montane forest in the north and centre of the island. The measured sites are cool and constantly wet, so it needs a mild, humid, highland setup rather than the warm conditions suited to pothos-type Epipremnum.

Where it grows wild

Specimens come from montane forest of Fagaceae and Eugenia in Central Sulawesi, from Gunung Ambang at about 1000 m, and from Bogani Nani Wartabone National Park in North Sulawesi. Like other Epipremnum it climbs tree trunks with its roots.

Specimen labels give about 1000 m and 2400 m. The cool measured climate fits montane forest.
