Description
Amydrium medium 'Silver', often called the Spiderman Monstera or Crocodile Aroid, is an eye-catching climber from South-East Asia, prized for its distinctive silver-toned foliage. This cultivar’s leaves have a striking silvery hue with deeply lobed shapes, lending a unique texture and colour to indoor spaces or shaded outdoor areas. Growing well on a moss pole or trellis, 'Silver' adds an exotic touch with minimal maintenance, making it a great choice for enthusiasts of rare, ornamental plants.
Suited to part shade and well-drained soil, this evergreen climber remains vibrant year-round, with increased watering required during warmer months, particularly from Djilba (Early Spring) through to Bunuru (Late Summer). With its lush foliage and ease of care, Amydrium medium 'Silver' brings a touch of the tropics to Perth gardens or homes.
