One of the first houseplant I ever grew. Havent had one in years most indoor plants are just until they go out for summer.
I remember an issue of Sunset magazine- before it went all Martha Stewart- in the 80's showed one just like the above growing in a 50 gallon Aquarium hydroponically. Big fat stems,leaves and the water had clouds of roots.
Great idea.

I love this plant. I've grow it before outside in the front yard; however, like with plants in the Araceae family they get eaten up quickly by sow bugs.
