$14.99

The arrowhead plant is a fast-growing, pretty, trailing or climbing vine. The simple arrow-shaped leaves vary in hue depending on their age, ranging from dark green and white to lime green and bright pink. Arrowhead vine grows best as a houseplant in bright, indirect light, well-draining potting soil, and warm, humid conditions. The vine is toxic to cats, dogs, and horses. Wear gloves to prevent the Nephthytis sap from irritating your skin.

Plant Care: Place  in medium or low light, direct sunlight will cause bleaching to the leaves. Water the plant until the soil is damp. Wait until the top of the soil is dry before watering it again.
