Arrowhead Vine (Syngonium podophyllum): Versatile Houseplant

Syngonium podophyllum, known as Arrowhead Vine, Goosefoot Plant, or African Evergreen, is a popular aroid from the Araceae family. Juvenile leaves are arrow-shaped; mature leaves become deeply lobed. Variegated cultivars add white, cream, or pink markings.

It trails or climbs, making it versatile for hanging baskets, totems, or groundcover in tropical shade. Prefers bright indirect light, high humidity, and well-drained soil. Easy to propagate from cuttings. A classic, low-maintenance houseplant.
