| The leaves on the young plant look like an Arrowhead. The mature leaves are more complex and divided.
You can see the diffence by Googling "Syngonium podophyllum Images". |

| I just bought two beautiful hanging baskets. I plan to hang them opposite one another on the same wall. The area has alot of filtered light but no direct light. Will this plant do well if I split it and place half in each hanging basket in these conditions? |

| Daisy: You have a lovely Syngonium. Scroll down this page to see the ones listed in Plant Files, there are 20 listed and I think yours is the first one, the White Veined: http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/adv_search.php?searcher[com... |

| Hubby says he will put the hangers up this weekend. I can't wait to see how lovely it will be in the hanging baskets. I wonder if it will go into shock when I split it?
Plantladylin, I have to agree with you. White Veined looks like mine. I also liked another one I saw there called Arrowhead vine, "Red Regina" - a soft maroon color.

| This is from my original plant, years ago. The stuff growing in the ground came from my original plant as well. I just moved this basket out in the open because it looks like it's going to rain! I hope it rains, I hope it rains ... we need some rain!  Click the image for an enlarged view.

| Oh, I just adore the solid green one.. Any chance you might share a piece? -- Green is my favorite color, so I guess it is no wonder I have fallen in love with the world of plants. I enjoy flowers but I love the foliage more than anything. I suppose that is why I love the philos and EE so much.
Lin, Maybe you can help me with the name of that particular green one and I will try to find one.. Just love it!!!

| This looks like a Nephytis to me... what's the difference between a Nephytis and an arrow plant? |

| Leysha,
When I was looking around about it I actually saw it called both. I guess just different common names. |

| Syngonium and Nepthytis are both in the Araceae family.
