How to Care for the Plant

Water
Water when dry. They prefer bright indirect or filtered light. They can handle lower lit areas, just be certain to allow them to dry completely between watering in these environments.
Pruning
The pruning is needed to keep a Syngonium living indoors handsome looking and to avoid the ugly flop effect. Also because the plant is slightly poisonous you really do want to know where all parts of the plant are growing and creeping around, especially if you have curious children or hungry pets around.
Fertilizer
To help establish your new Chiapense Arrowhead Syngonium, fertilize sparingly at least 6 inches away from the base, tri-annually with a slow time released product. Unfertilized they will tend to grow very slowly. Note: The heavy salts in cheaper fertilizers will damage the roots and possibly kill the plant.
