It stays small, around 15cm to 30cm tall and 20cm to 30cm wide, and it is easy to look after indoors. It is not a plant for homes with curious pets or small children, because the leaves are toxic if eaten.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy you'll love it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGlowing golden leaves.\u003c\/strong\u003e Yellow shading to white, with pink-red veins, brightens a dull corner of a room.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAn elegant trailing habit.\u003c\/strong\u003e The stems show off best in a hanging pot or macrame planter, where they can cascade as they grow.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEasy care indoors.\u003c\/strong\u003e Syngoniums are forgiving houseplants that need regular water, a little feeding and indirect light.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompact size.\u003c\/strong\u003e At 30cm or less it fits a shelf, a desk or a small hanging pot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHappy in shade.\u003c\/strong\u003e A shady, humid position suits it, so it works on a covered patio as well as indoors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere it works best\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHanging pots and macrame planters.\u003c\/strong\u003e Trailing stems spill over the sides and put the gold leaves at eye level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIndoor planting schemes.\u003c\/strong\u003e Pair it with dark leaved plants in a bright room, away from direct sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShaded patios.\u003c\/strong\u003e In tropical and subtropical regions it suits a covered, humid patio with indirect light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTropical style underplanting.\u003c\/strong\u003e In frost free gardens, plant 25cm apart beneath taller plants for a low carpet of gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eGrowing Golden Allusion Arrowhead Plant in Australia\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePosition and climate.\u003c\/strong\u003e A humid, shady spot with indirect sunlight.
