Plant Description
Description
Syngonium podophyllum ‘Arrow’, commonly known as the Arrowhead Plant, is a fast-growing tropical houseplant with attractive arrow-shaped green leaves and a compact, bushy growth habit. As it matures, it can trail or climb, making it a versatile plant for shelves, hanging baskets, or moss poles. Easy to care for and adaptable, it's an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced plant owners.

WATER
Moderate watering. Allow the top few centimetres of soil to dry out between waterings. Keep the compost lightly moist but avoid waterlogging.
SOIL
Free-draining aroid mix made from houseplant compost, orchid bark, and perlite to provide excellent drainage and airflow.

JOE'S TOP TIP
Trim the growing tips regularly to encourage a fuller, bushier plant. If left unpruned, it will naturally begin to trail or climb.
COMMON MISTAKE
Most people damage this plant by overwatering or placing it in prolonged direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
WHEN TO COME BACK TO US
Bring it back (or a photo) in 6–8 weeks if you want: • Repotting advice • A health check • Help training it to climb or encouraging bushier growth
PLANT FACT
As Syngoniums mature, their leaves often change shape from simple arrowheads to more deeply divided foliage, especially when allowed to climb.
