Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A compact, full Syngonium that is slow to vine. The leaf size is intermediate and arrow-shaped. Leaf color is a brilliant, almost iridescent, golden yellow with prominent pink-red veins which offers an excellent contrast. It can be used to create contrast in a combination or in plantings much like yellow-gold coleus is used in the landscape plantings. It is a nice addition to any assortment.
