Syngonium erythrophyllum 'Black Velvet' 4"—A Botanical Performer in Your Home Stage

Meet the Syngonium erythrophyllum 'Black Velvet' 4", a plant that’s as thoughtful as you are. Known as the “Black Velvet Arrowhead,” it brings major mood with its rich, velvety foliage—deep green on top and a seductive burgundy underneath. With its arrow-shaped leaves and compact growth, this Syngonium is the quiet scene-stealer in your home’s leafy lineup.

The Nitty-Gritty (Plant Care):
• Light: Tolerates low light but thrives in bright, indirect conditions—moody but not high-maintenance.
• Water: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. It appreciates a drink but doesn’t want wet feet.
• Humidity: Enjoys higher humidity but isn’t too fussy—bathroom dwellers and misting fans, take note.

What It’s Telling You:
• Happy Signs: Velvety, upright leaves with rich coloring and a steady pace of new growth.
• Needs TLC: Yellowing leaves or crispy edges? It might be thirsty or in a draft. Move it somewhere cozy and consistent.

Good News for Pet Parents:
This one is not pet-friendly. Best to keep out of reach of curious paws and whiskers.

Extra Love for Detail Lovers:
• The 4" size refers to the diameter of the nursery pot, not the height of the plant.
