It makes flowers called a spadix surrounded by a white boat-shape, but you don't see the flowers much on houseplants. The fruit tastes like banana, pineapple and mango mixed together when ripe.

It likes indirect sunlight, high wetness in the air and soil with peat moss. You can help it climb by giving it something to wrap around. For symbols, this plant means long life and respecting old people. It also means a bond between two people, so it's a popular gift for marriages and anniversaries. There are different kinds with special leaf designs and growth.
