Plant Care

This climbing vine has the classic swiss cheese style of foliage. Capable of growing up to 6m tall in the right conditions, so it will need support from a totem or moss pole as it gets bigger. One of those houseplants that every collector needs to have! Position - Happy in a warm spot away from draughts and with indirect light, low to medium light levels are fine. Water - Keep the plant in well drained soil, never allow to sit in soggy wet soil, water about once a week or when the plant looks a little lack lustre. Less water will be needed though the Winter as it goes into semi dormancy Tips - To get a more bushy plant, prune back the tips of the vine to a node and this will encourage it to sprout two or more new shoots from where it was trimmed.

Safety - Can cause serious mouth and digestive irritation if consumed by pets or humans. The best practice is always to keep houseplants out of reach of small children and pets Difficulty - Medium
