Native habitat and growth pattern
The Syngonium Red Arrow is native to the rainforests of Central and South America, where it grows as a tropical climber. In the wild, its vining stems climb trees in the dense, humid jungle, producing bold, arrow-shaped leaves. Indoors, it adapts beautifully as either a trailing or climbing houseplant, creating rainforest style in UK homes.
