Syngonium erythrophyllum 'Red Arrow'

Syngonium erythrophyllum 'Red Arrow' grows with narrow arrowhead leaves that show a dark green to near-black upper surface and a red to burgundy reverse. The colour contrast becomes especially visible once the stems extend, because the undersides flash through when the plant trails or climbs.

This smaller-leaved Syngonium stays neat when young, then gradually sends out vining stems from its nodes. It can be trained upward or allowed to hang so the red leaf backs remain visible from the side.

Syngonium erythrophyllum 'Red Arrow' leaf profile

  • Plant type: Climbing and trailing tropical aroid from the Araceae family.
  • Leaf shape: Narrow arrowhead to sagittate leaves on slender vining stems.
  • Leaf colour: Dark green upper surfaces with a red, burgundy or wine-toned underside.
  • Growth habit: Compact when young, then gradually extending from nodes as stems lengthen.
  • Pot use: Can be grown in a hanging pot, on a shelf edge or on a climbing support where the leaf backs can be seen.
  • Natural range: Syngonium erythrophyllum is recorded from Panama in wet tropical forest conditions.
  • Safety: Contains calcium oxalate crystals and should be kept away from pets and children.

Indoor growth of Syngonium erythrophyllum 'Red Arrow'

Syngonium erythrophyllum is a climbing species, so 'Red Arrow' develops beyond its compact young shape with age. In indoor pots, the stems can lengthen and root from nodes when they meet a moist surface or climbing material.

The red underside changes how the plant looks as the stems move. A trailing stem shows the colour from below, while a supported stem keeps the leaves closer together and can reduce long bare gaps between nodes. Pruning above a node shortens older stems and encourages fresh side growth.

Care for Syngonium erythrophyllum 'Red Arrow'

  • Light: Place in bright filtered light or gentle indirect light; harsh direct sun can mark the dark leaf surface and scorch exposed edges.
  • Watering: Water when the upper part of the substrate has dried, then let excess water drain fully from the pot.
  • Substrate: Use an airy aroid mix with bark, coco chips, perlite or mineral components so fine roots do not sit in dense wet soil.
  • Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity helps new leaves open evenly during active stem growth.
  • Temperature: Keep warm and stable; cold wet substrate can slow the roots and cause soft yellowing leaves.
  • Fertilising: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced houseplant fertiliser, then reduce feeding when growth slows.
  • Pruning: Cut above a node to shorten long stems and encourage new side growth lower on the plant.
  • Propagation: Root stem cuttings with at least one node in water, sphagnum or a light propagation mix.
  • Repotting: Move up one pot size when roots fill the pot; an oversized pot stays wet too long around the root ball.
  • Mineral substrate: A careful transition to inert substrate is possible when old soil is removed and the water level stays below the stem base.

Problems on Syngonium erythrophyllum 'Red Arrow'

  • Crisp edges: Dry roots, low humidity or heat near glass can dry the thin leaf margins.
  • Yellow leaves: Persistently wet substrate can weaken roots and soften the lower foliage.
  • Long bare stems: Low light or missed pruning can stretch the vine and reduce leaf density.
  • Leaf scorch: Pale, dry patches can appear after direct sun, especially on exposed new leaves.
  • Pests: Check leaf undersides and nodes for thrips, spider mites and mealybugs, especially on stressed plants.

Safety for Syngonium erythrophyllum 'Red Arrow'

Syngonium erythrophyllum 'Red Arrow' contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals. Chewing the leaves or stems can irritate the mouth, throat and digestive tract, so keep the plant out of reach of pets and small children.

Botanical background for Syngonium erythrophyllum 'Red Arrow'

Syngonium erythrophyllum is an accepted species in Araceae. The epithet combines Greek elements for red and leaf, matching the red-toned undersides seen on this plant in cultivation.

Train Syngonium erythrophyllum 'Red Arrow' upward for closer leaf spacing, or let it trail where the burgundy backs can show along the stems.

Not Natural
I loved the application of this product, very smooth, no smell, no white patches and, supposedly, all natural. Then I looked at the inactive ingredients! EWG rates this product #3 for problematic ingredients. The most problematic is the OCTINOXATE, which they rate #6! I'm torn. I have not found another sunscreen with as good an application as this one but I don't want to put harmful things on my skin. I have decided to return it. Sigh! UPDATE: I just discovered that EWG rates highly the Coola PLANT BASED sunscreen (not this one). The reviews for that product, however, suggest it leaves a white paste, like most other sunscreens. I'm going Dr. Mercola's face stick. It got good reviews here.

Excellent sunscreen for daily sun protection...
This is a great sunscreen for the "light" days in the sun. I layer my skincare (serums, creams, then sunscreen) before I apply my makeup. Sunscreen is always the last step before I apply my makeup. Other brands have been known to "bead up" under my makeup through out the day, or have a white cast to them. This does not do that. It doesn't leave a white cast, or residue of any kind on my skin. It is lightweight to the point of being weightless right after application. It is incredibly moisturizing on my dry skin as well, which I LOVE! Love the ingredients too for everyday use! The only downside to this sunscreen is it isn't strong enough to protect my skin on days I am in the sun a lot and cannot reapply every hour, or so. I noticed a couple of stubborn brown spots pop up after a couple hours in direct sunlight. I didn't burn, but I did get a tan on my face I was hoping to avoid. All in all, This is my favorite sunscreen I use when I am running to-and-fro, but not the sunscreen I will use at the ball field, or a day at the beach.

A little pricey but worth it
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH. I have really sensitive skin and eczema, and am allergic to scented liquid soaps, detergents and creams. I got a sample of this in a subscription box, and fell in LOVE after I tested just a little on my hand at first. Now I've ordered multiple time, and even shipped some to my mom! It feels luxurious but also fresh and natural on your face, I put it on as a moisturizer, hit some concealer under my eyes, swipe some mascara on and am good to go - it feels like a whole skin-care routine in one go. The size is a little small for the price, but it's light, non-irritating, and refreshing. I think it's definitely worth it if you have sensitive skin and want sun protection without a load of chemicals on your face. I put a picture of what it looks like on my hand reflected in some light - it's slightly greasy at first, but it dries nice and soft afterwards, I still feel like my pores can breathe. I usually don't write product reviews, but after I ordered my 3rd batch I felt I should share. *One other thing to note - make sure you read the label if you want the specific scented one, I accidentally ordered the unscented one when I wanted the cucumber because the packaging looks the same and the label is in the scripty font and I missed it when I made a rushed order.

Great for sensitive skin
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I usually have problems with fragrance in almost any face cream or sunscreen, and my skin reacts very easily, so I’m always careful with what I use. I tried the COOLA Organic Face Sunscreen SPF 50 Sunblock Lotion (Fragrance Free) and I’m honestly impressed. It feels very light on the skin, doesn’t irritate my face at all, and finally a sunscreen that doesn’t have that strong smell that usually bothers me. It absorbs well, works great under makeup, and gives good daily protection without feeling greasy. If you have sensitive skin or issues with fragrance like I do, this one is definitely worth trying.

Love this sunscreen
Scent: Fragrance Free, Size: 1.7 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I would love to buy again, but I go through sunscreen, I have to find a little less expensive one. No burn, dewy not greasy look. Great for mature skin. No fragrance, works well, melts right in the skin. I do love this product and the spray too!
