Temperature Tolerance & Placement in the Terrarium: Too high temperatures/low humidity may cause leaves to brown.  Can be used as a back/wall planting, or as a groundcover if maintained low.  Can also be partially submerged or placed next to a water feature.

Edible & Side Effects if Ingested: Arrowhead Vines are members of the family Araceae, so they contain low levels of oxalic acid and sharp calcium oxalate crystals known as raphides. Ingestion is not recommended and may cause oral irritation, however animals typically don't ingest them.
