Divaricate typhonium is a plant species primarily native to Southeast Asia and East Asia. Its natural range extends across the major regions of these continental areas. It has also been introduced in various tropical regions, consolidating its presence across parts of South Asia and in isolated locations within Africa and the Caribbean. The distribution of divaricate typhonium reflects adaptation to diverse climates within these broader geographies.

Divaricate typhonium contains calcium oxalate, causing mild toxicity in humans, cats, and dogs. Ingestion of any part can lead to mouth irritation, burning, swelling, and gastrointestinal distress in humans. Cats and dogs exhibit symptoms like vomiting, drooling, and difficulty swallowing. Immediate veterinary care is essential after ingestion.

Divaricate typhonium origins from East Asia. This plant is a weed due to its aggressive ability to reproduce and spread. It proliferates by rapidly producing small tubers that easily establish themselves in the soil, even if tiny pieces are left behind. This makes eradicating divaricate typhonium quite troublesome, hence classifying it as a weed.^divaricate typhonium can invade gardens in disturbing numbers and if not addressed promptly, can overshadow other plants, competing for sunlight, space, and nutrients, effectively harming or even killing the more desirable garden species. Equally worth mentioning is that divaricate typhonium possesses certain chemical substances which can be harmful to both humans and animals if ingested or contacted frequently. The primary means of spreading divaricate typhonium is through its tubers. If these tubers are not carefully and entirely removed from the soil, they can regrow more plants, making permanent elimination challenging.

The best season for the removal of divaricate typhonium is during its growing season which is usually late spring and early summer. This is when the plant is vigorously growing and hence, it is easier to control it. It is crucial to remove or control divaricate typhonium before it reaches its mature phase and sets seeds. Here are the organic methods to remove or control divaricate typhonium:
