Syngonium erythrophyllum "red arrow plant"

This hard to find the plant is absolutely stunning and very easy to care for. The Syngonium red arrow plant has wonderfully ruby red coloured leaves that open out into wide paddle-shapes along long vining stems. It’s a really interesting houseplant that will grow as a hanging plant or a climber and will want to spread out and grow in all directions.

A rainforest regular, Syngoniums are a native of the Americas and it really brings a touch of the exotic! Brighten up dreary days by looking at your Syngonium and imagining hot, moist heat and birds screeching, let yourself be carried away to the jungle!

These plants aren’t hard to look after, they will thrive in the shade which makes them ideal if you have no experience of looking after houseplants.  It also means they aren’t hard to situate in your home, they will love any corner of any room really, in the sun or in the shade.

The Syngonium red arrow plant would make a great houseplant gift for friends or family - surprise them with rainforest style!
