Arrowleaf Plant
The Arrowhead (Syngonium podophyllum) is native to the tropical rain forests in Central and South America. Its common name, Arrowhead Plant, is derived from the spade-like shape of its leaves. Fast-growing and lush, the Arrowhead is constantly unfurling new foliage, in varieties ranging from dark green with strong white variegation to hues of lime and even pink. Young Arrowhead Plants are typically characterized by their upright clusters of stems. As the Arrowhead matures, it can produce trailing or climbing stems and larger leaves. If its youthful shape is preferred, simply trim it as desired.
Arrowhead plants, also known as Sagittaria latifolia, are aquatic plants with arrow-shaped leaves that can be grown in aquariums. They are easy to care for and can add interest and texture to water features
