A unique Aroid from Papua New Guinea that is notable for the palm-like juvenile foliage. Still somewhat rare in collections, it makes for an interesting subject. The vine is thin and creeps along the ground until it finds a host tree or a solid vertical surface to climb. Once it begins to climb, the foliage morphs to a slightly different leaf with thicker segments.
Amydrium zippelianum should behave well as a terrarium plant due to its petite juvenile form and has proven to stay small if not provided with significant height to climb. If growing as a house plant, it can be treated basically like any other pot grown Aroid. Good soil moisture (not saturated) and bright shade. A support would be best but is not totally necessary.
