This tropical plant likes moisture, so water a couple of times a week and mist regularly. It does best in medium to bright light, so keep in a sunny room but out of direct light.

Plant Bio
Native to subtropical territories including Ecuador and southern Mexico, this jungle plant is actually a trailing vine and can grow to a remarkable 20m in the wild. It rapidly gained popularity in America and Europe due to its striking variegation, making it a prime choice for home decoration.
The syngonium family covers many species, which grow in a range of different hues. The ‘pink heart’ variety, for instance, is famously rosy, whereas the ‘feel green’ is (as you’d expect) a luscious green hue.
