Syngonium ‘Regina Red’ — Pink Arrowhead Vine

Description

Syngonium podophyllum ‘Regina Red’ is a colorful arrowhead vine with pink-red leaves and green edges. Young leaves have a simple arrow shape. Older growth can become more divided.

The stems can trail from a pot or climb a support. Regular trimming can also keep the plant compact.

Light

Give it bright, indirect light. Strong sun can burn the leaves. Low light may dull the pink color. For softer pink and cream tones, see Syngonium ‘Milk Confetti’.

Water and Soil

Use loose soil that drains well. Water when the top of the mix starts to dry. Let extra water drain away. For a pale green form, see Syngonium ‘White Butterfly’.

Climb or Trail

Train the stems on a pole, or let them trail. Trim long growth to help the plant stay full. Stem pieces with a node can root and make new plants.

Simple Care

Feed lightly while new growth is active. Keep the plant warm and away from cold drafts. Check new leaves for pests. For bold white variegation, see Variegated Arrowhead Vine.
