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.

Lightweight but questionable coverage
I traditionally used the Coola face lotion but had switched to the spray for my body so I figured I’d try the face spray. It doesn’t smell as bad as a lot of the reviews say it does. It also doesn’t really smell “tropical” for that matter, but it isn’t unpleasant. It sprays evenly and doesn’t feel heavy or greasy. My only complaint is I still got a little burnt. Full disclosure: I’m super fair and have to reapply every 30-60 minutes, even without getting wet. So maybe it’s not meant for people with as pale a complexion as me. Or I have to constantly reapply, or put the lotion underneath. But otherwise I really liked it and really like Coola products.

Must have for a hot summer!
My mom saw my aunt using it and was impressed, so she bought it for herself and my sister-in-law. They both love how gentle it feels on the skin and that it’s organic and effective.

Too smelly
I love the idea of a clear spray sunscreen but my daughter says it stings her eyes and the smell gives me an instant headache. I really wanna like this but it’s a no go for me

Great for sensitive skin
This was great to take on vacation. I went to Cancun and used this on my face. Never got burned. I have super sensitive skin and this didn’t cause any reactions. I’m also sensitive to smells and I don’t notice anything with this product. Will purchase again.

Buyer beware!
Awful! I sprayed my face with it and immediately felt my skin burning. I opened the bottle and noticed all that was in it was a yellowish fluid that smelled like straight rubbing alcohol. My face still has marks on it days later from whatever the substance was. I have used this brand before, and never experienced anything like this. The product was either years past expiration, or liquid was replaced with some kind of chemical.
