Syngonium podophyllum

Arrowhead Vine (mini)

Juvenile arrow leaves for cabinets — prune hard to keep the mini look.

Young syngoniums stay compact and graphic. In humid cabinets they climb; pinch early so they remain a mid-layer accent.

Why it works

Bold leaf shape teaches composition and pruning in larger vessels.

Watering notes

Water when the top centimetre eases off. More airflow than a sealed jar.

Care tips

  • Buy juvenile forms labelled mini.
  • Provide a small moss pole only in tall cabinets.
  • Wipe leaves if dust builds in open displays.

Common problems

  • Rapid climbing that overwhelms.
  • Crispy tips in dry rooms.
  • Yellowing from overwatering.
