Aroids range from tiny floating aquatic plants to forest climbers. Many are cultivated for their ornamental flowers or foliage and others for their food value. Present article critically reviews the growth conditions of Epipremnum aureum (Linden and Andre) Bunting with special emphasis on their ethnomedicinal uses and pharmacological activities, beneficial to both human and the environment. In this article, we review the origin, distribution, brief morphological characters, medicinal and pharmacological properties of Epipremnum aureum, commonly known as ornamental plant having indoor air pollution removing capacity. There are very few reports to the medicinal properties of E. aureum. In our investigation, it has been found that each part of this plant possesses antibacterial, anti-termite and antioxidant properties. However, apart from these it can also turn out to be anti-malarial, anti- cancerous, anti-tuberculosis, anti-arthritis and wound healing etc which are a severe international problem. In the present study, details about the pharmacological actions of medicinal plant E. aureum (Linden and Andre) Bunting and Epipremnum pinnatum (L.) Engl.

Atoll Research Bulletin No. 503 the Vascular Plants Of
ATOLL RESEARCH BULLETIN NO. 503 THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF MAJURO ATOLL, REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS BY NANCY VANDER VELDE ISSUED BY NATIONAL MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION WASHINGTON, D.C., U.S.A. AUGUST 2003 Uliga Figure 1. Majuro Atoll THE VASCULAR PLANTS OF MAJURO ATOLL, REPUBLIC OF THE MARSHALL ISLANDS ABSTRACT Majuro Atoll has been a center of activity for the Marshall Islands since 1944 and is now the major population center and port of entry for the country. Previous to the accompanying study, no thorough documentation has been made of the vascular plants of Majuro Atoll. There were only reports that were either part of much larger discussions on the entire Micronesian region or the Marshall Islands as a whole, and were of a very limited scope. Previous reports by Fosberg, Sachet & Oliver (1979, 1982, 1987) presented only 115 vascular plants on Majuro Atoll. In this study, 563 vascular plants have been recorded on Majuro. INTRODUCTION The accompanying report presents a complete flora of Majuro Atoll, which has never been done before. It includes a listing of all species, notation as to origin (i.e. indigenous, aboriginal introduction, recent introduction), as well as the original range of each. The major synonyms are also listed. For almost all, English common names are presented. Marshallese names are given, where these were found, and spelled according to the current spelling system, aside from limitations in diacritic markings. A brief notation of location is given for many of the species. The entire list of 563 plants is provided to give the people a means of gaining a better understanding of the nature of the plants of Majuro Atoll.

Epipremnum Aureum1
Fact Sheet FPS-194 October, 1999 Epipremnum aureum1 Edward F. Gilman2 Introduction The green and yellow heart-shaped leaves of Golden Pothos are easily recognized from its use as hanging baskets indoors, but this plant makes a suitable groundcover or climbing vine in frost-free climates (Fig. 1). Growing quickly up the trunks of pine, palm, oak, or other coarse-barked trees, the normally small leaves change to a mature form averaging 18 inches in length, lending a tropical effect to the landscape. The leaves sometime become so large that they may cause the vine to lose its tendril-hold on the trunk, especially after heavy rain storms. When not allowed to climb, Golden Pothos rapidly covers the ground with a dense cover of its variegated foliage. General Information Scientific name: Epipremnum aureum Pronunciation: epp-pip-PREM-num AR-ee-um Common name(s): Golden Pothos, Pothos Family: Araceae Plant type: ground cover USDA hardiness zones: 10 through 11 (Fig. 2) Figure 1. Golden Pothos. Planting month for zone 10 and 11: year round Origin: not native to North America Uses: ground cover; container or above-ground planter; Description naturalizing; suitable for growing indoors; cut foliage/twigs; Height: depends upon supporting structure hanging basket; cascading down a wall Spread: depends upon supporting structure Availablity: generally available in many areas within its Plant habit: prostrate (flat); spreading hardiness range Plant density: moderate Growth rate: fast Texture: medium 1.

Thus, this research aimed to study the survival of some indoor plant species in with and without air conditioning. We selected plants from 15 families in a total of 20 plant species by review the documents related to the indoor plant and based on duplication of the top 20 plant species, and popular in the market. The study was conducted by incubating in a room with air conditioning (average of temperature and light at 25.6 Celsius and 396.6 Lux, respectively) and without air conditioning (average of temperature and light at 31.9 Celsius and 2,044.1 Lux, respectively), 8 hrs./day average light, watering one time in the initial experiment and noticed the water saturated soil. The survival condition was recorded in 3 levels, namely, the normal condition was 1, the withered condition was 2 and the dead condition was 3. The data was collected for 15 days. The results were 7 species of plants that tolerated both conditioning included as Philodendron 'Moonlight', Aechmea fasciata, Tradescantia zebrina, Chlorophytum comosum, Dracaena surculosa, Tillandsia usneoides and Nephrolepis cordifolia.
