Overview
Syngonium Arrow is a striking, easy-care houseplant known for its distinctive arrow-shaped leaves and fresh, vibrant green colour. As it matures, the foliage can develop subtle variations in shape and colour, giving the plant an ever-changing look. Whether left to trail elegantly or trained to climb, Syngonium Arrow brings a lush, tropical vibe to any indoor space.

Growing Conditions in Native Habitat
In its natural environment, Syngonium grows under the canopy of tropical rainforests, thriving in dappled light with high humidity and rich, well-draining soil.

Care Guide
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light. Can adapt to lower light conditions but grows more vibrantly with consistent brightness. Avoid strong, direct sunlight which can scorch the leaves.
Ideal Room: Perfect for living rooms, bedrooms, or home offices where moderate to bright, indirect light is available.
Feeding: Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer. Reduce feeding in the fall and winter.
Humidity: Enjoys higher humidity but is quite tolerant of average indoor conditions. Boost humidity with misting or a nearby humidifier during dry seasons.
Ideal Temperature: Thrives in temperatures between 60–85°F (16–29°C). Keep away from cold drafts and temperatures below 50°F (10°C).

Watering: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Maintain lightly moist soil but avoid letting it sit in water. In winter, allow the soil to dry out slightly more between waterings.

Pet/Child Safe: Toxic if ingested. Keep away from curious pets and children.

Soil Type: Prefers a well-draining, peat-based potting mix. Adding perlite can improve drainage and aeration.

Propagation: Propagates easily through stem cuttings placed in water or moist soil. Roots usually develop within a few weeks.

Eventual Height and Spread: Can reach around 3–6 feet (0.9–1.8 meters) in height if allowed to climb, with a spread of up to 2 feet (60 cm).

Growth Rate: Fast-growing under ideal conditions, especially in warmer months.

Pests and Treatment: Watch for spider mites, aphids, and mealybugs. Treat infestations with insecticidal soap, neem oil, or by rinsing the plant under lukewarm water.

Repotting: Repot every 1–2 years or when roots begin to outgrow the pot. Choose a container with good drainage.

Pruning: Trim back leggy vines to maintain a compact shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any yellowing or damaged leaves.

Air Purification: Syngonium Arrow is known for its excellent air-purifying properties, helping to remove indoor toxins like formaldehyde and benzene.

Folklore: In Feng Shui, Syngonium is believed to bring positive energy into a home, symbolizing growth, development, and good fortune.
