Syngoniums are leafy, vining plants known for their distinct, pointed foliage. The Red Arrow Syngonium has the easy care requirements and leafy good looks you expect from a Syngonium but it also has stunning foliage that changes shape with age. The leaves are glossy and dark green with purple undersides. Young leaves are shaped like an arrowhead but develop deep lobes with age that almost resemble multiple leaflets. Mature plants can reach several feet long.
Best Locations For Growing Red Arrow Syngonium
Grow the Red Arrow Syngonium in a hanging basket, or give it a trellis and let the vines climb. This tropical plant thrives in increased sunlight and prefers extra humidity, so a kitchen or bathroom are good choices, but it can live in any room of a home as long as the conditions are suitable. Eating or chewing on any part of a Red Arrow Syngonium will cause pain and discomfort. Keep this plant away from young kids and pets.
Red Arrow Syngonium Sunlight Requirements
Select a location that receives medium to bright, indirect sunlight. Increased sunlight maintains the vibrant hues of the foliage and promotes new growth. Plants grown in low light will become leggy. Keep the Red Arrow Syngonium out of direct sunlight because it will burn the leaves.
Red Arrow Syngonium Care
Trim straggly stems and remove dead growth as necessary. The Red Arrow Syngonium is easy to maintain and generally needs to be repotted with fresh soil every one to two years. When the plant outgrows the current container, give it a pot measuring one to two inches bigger. Use airy soil with increased organic content. The soil should allow moisture to drain.
Watering Red Arrow Syngonium
Water your Red Arrow Syngonium when the top couple of inches of potting soil are dry. This plant likes damp conditions, but too much water can damage the roots and foliage, so feel the soil before watering. Plan to water less often in the winter.
High humidity is ideal. Above-average humidity can be hard to find naturally, but a pebble tray or humidifier can provide the extra moisture this Syngonium needs.
Feeding Red Arrow Syngonium
Keep the Red Arrow Syngonium growing by applying a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. Feed the plant every four weeks during the spring and summer. Stop feeding during the winter, when growth slows or stops.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
