    Parthenocissus ‘Amazonica’ is a beautiful, jungle vining house plant displaying narrow, green arrowhead leaves with a silver overlay and white veins. The petioles and undersides are a burgundy red, providing excellent contrast. The fast growing vine clings by tendrils. Plant in well-drained soil with regular waterings. Pinch the tips to encourage fuller branching. Best color in bright light. Protect from frost!
