Syngonium 'Merry'
Best vining foliage for indoor gardeners seeking vibrant, low-maintenance color.
This striking Goosefoot variety brings a moody, deep-hued drama to your shelves that standard green foliage simply can't match. Its vining habit is undeniably elegant, though you will need to provide a bit of vertical space or a trellis to keep its sprawling growth in check.
