Syngonium Podophyllum Care: Light, Water, and Pruning

Identified: Syngonium podophyllum (Arrowhead Plant)

Sometimes called "Elephant Ears" (a name shared by several plants).

Care

• North or east windowsill; tight pot preferred.
• Water when soil surface feels dry.
• In nature, a rainforest floor vine. Unpruned, it becomes long and straggly.
• Prune long stems back regularly—stakes are outgrown.

Pruning keeps it bushy and attractive. Detailed pruning guide available on request.
