		Most arums are native to the tropics, although a few genera, such as Arisaema, Symplocarpus, and Peltandra, are found in temperate regions.
		Arum flowers are crowded on a spike (spadix), which is enfolded by a vaselike leaf (spathe).
		Three arums are grown extensively for a starchy food made from their corms or tubers: taro (Colocasia esculenta) and dasheen (C. esculenta), both of which are widely cultivated in Southeast Asia and Polynesia, and Yautia (Xanthosoma sagittifolium), which is native to tropical America and the West Indies.

		This seems to be the main propogation means for arrow arum, even though large stands are formed by rhizomous root growth.
		A related species, Peltandra sagittaefolia (also known as White arrow arum or sometimes Spoonflower) is found only along the coastal areas of NC down to Florida and west to Mississippi.
		It is also used in lake erosion control because the foliage and stems in large stands creates a wave deflecting or buffering barrier, while the root masses knit together and stabilize the submerged sediments.
