Description
Aroids are a group of useful plants belonging to the plant family Araceae. Though most of these aroid plants are used as ornamentals, some are used as nutritious vegetables. The most popular examples of ornamental aroids are aglonemas, money plants or pothos, monsteras and philodendrons. However, there are some other aroid plants which are highly useful as food plants. Some popular examples are taro or elephant's ear, yams, Amorphophallus or elephant foot yam, tannia or Xanthosoma spp., Lasia spp. or Kohila and Cyrtosperma spp. These aroids are mainly used as vegetables and hence the term 'vegetable aroids' are commonly used. In this book, growing practices and nutritional information of some popular aroid vegetables are explained in detail.
