Cultivation
Cissus antarctica is often used as a vine in subtropical climates, such as California, as an ornamental plant in gardens.
Kangaroo vine also is a popular interior or houseplant, a well adapted plant, even in subdued light. It does not do well above 15 °C, especially when exposed to central heating, which can cause the leaves to drop.[2]
