'''''Arthropodium''''' is a [[genus]] of [[herb]]aceous [[perennial plant]]s native to the [[Southern Hemisphere]]. It is sometimes placed in the family [[Asphodelaceae]]. The [[rhizome]]s of some species can be eaten as [[root vegetable]]s, including ''A. cirratum'', ''A. milleflorum'', ''A. minus'', and ''A. strictum''. ''A. cirratum'' is native to [[New Zealand]], where it may once have been farmed. It is used for medicine as well as food, and has symbolic importance in traditional [[Māori culture]]. {{Inc| Arthropodium (Greek, joint and foot, alluding to jointed pedicels). Liliaceae. Herbaceous perennials, allied to Anthericum, grown in the open in the South and otherwise in greenhouses. Tufted herbs 1-3 ft. high, with fibrous fleshy roots: Lvs. linear or lanceolate, crowded at base of st.: scape simple or branched: fls. white or violet, in racemes or panicles, on pedicels jointed at the middle; perianth persistent, the segms. 6 and distinct and 3-nerved; stamens 6, shorter than perianth: fr. a subglobose caps., 3-valved.—About 10 species in Austral., New Zeal., etc. Cult. and prop. as for Anthericum, requiring no special treatment. }}Describe the plant here... ==Cultivation== ===Propagation=== ===Pests and diseases=== ==Species== Species include:<ref name=APNI>{{cite web |url=http://www.anbg.gov.au/cgi-bin/apni?TAXON_NAME=Arthropodium|title=''Arthropodium'' |accessdate=2010-01-06 |work= [[Australian Plant Name Index]] (APNI), IBIS database|publisher = Centre for Plant Biodiversity Research, Australian Government, Canberra}}</ref> *''[[Arthropodium cirratum]]'' - rengarenga, renga lily, New Zealand rock lily, or maikaika *''[[Arthropodium curvipes]]'' S.Moore *''[[Arthropodium dyeri]]'' (Domin) Brittan *''[[Arthropodium fimbriatum]]'' R.Br. *''[[Arthropodium milleflorum]]'' (DC.)
