Arrowhead Vine Photo Gallery

---

I am low light tolerant but will grow faster and maintain my vibrant coloring and markings if grown in medium to bright indirect light. Direct sun will scorch my leaves! 

 I like consistently moist soil. My native environment has humid and tropical conditions. Add humidity through spritzing, using a humidifier, or adding a pebble tray to keep me moist and happy.  Water me less in the winter!

I prefer rich well-draining and loose soil.  Start with good quality potting mix and some perlite for drainage.

 All-purpose potting soil will also do the job. 

Apply half-strength indoor plant liquid fertilizer at least once a month during the growing season.

 This climbing vine contains insoluble oxalate crystals similar to other plants in the Araceae family. Chewing or biting into this plant will release these crystals causing oral tissue irritation.

 Arrowhead produced large, starchy rhizomes, also known as "duck potatoes"; beneath the water level that provide a popular food source for muskrats and ducks.
