“Pet poisonous” - Toxic to Dogs Epipremnum aureum is a species of flowering plant in the family of Araceae, native in Mo& x27;orea, French Polynesia. The species is a popular houseplant in temperate regions, but has also become naturalised in tropical and sub-tropical forests worldwide, including northern Australia, Southeast Asia, India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh, Hawaii and the West Indies, where it has caused severe ecological damage in some cases. It has had a long history with Nomenclature, being categorized as a few different species in the past. In 1880 when it was first categorized, it was labelled as a Pothos aureus, which is in part why it& x27;s often commonly referred to as a Pothos. After a flower was observed in 1962, it was given the new name of Raphidophora aurea. However, after closer examination of the flower, researchers noticed its heightened similarity to Epipremnum pinnatum and classified it as such. Only after further observations of all parts of the plant, including the leaves and growing patterns, was it separated from the E. pinnatum species and given its own classification of E. aureum. It has reportedly not produced a flower since 1962, either in the wild or as a domesticated plant. The plant has a multitude of common names including golden pothos, hunter& x27;s robe, ivy arum, money plant, silver vine, Solomon Islands ivy and taro vine. It is also called devil& x27;s vine or devil& x27;s ivy because it is almost impossible to kill and it stays green even when kept in the dark.[5] It is sometimes mistakenly labeled as a Philodendron in plant stores. It is commonly known as money plant in many parts of the Indian subcontinent E. aureum is an evergreen vine growing to 20 m & x28;66 ft& x29; tall, with stems up to 4 cm & x28;2 in& x29; in diameter, climbing by means of aerial roots which adhere to surfaces. The leaves are alternate, heart-shaped, entire on juvenile plants, but irregularly pinnatifid on mature plants, up to 100 cm & x28;39 in& x29; long and 45 cm & x28;18 in& x29; broad; juvenile leaves are much smaller, typically under 20 cm & x28;8 in& x29; long. The flowers are produced in a spathe up to 23 cm & x28;9 in& x29; long.
