Syngonium Wendlandii for Sale — Velvety Dark Green Leaves With Dramatic Silver-White Midrib

If you’ve been searching for Syngonium Wendlandii for sale, Quinn’s Fins grows Syngonium wendlandii — commonly known as Silver Goosefoot Plant or Wendland’s Arrowhead — right here in our on-site nursery greenhouse. Syngonium Wendlandii is one of the most elegant and distinctive Syngoniums available — a true species (not a S. podophyllum cultivar) native to the tropical rainforests of Central and South America that produces deeply rich, velvety dark green arrowhead leaves with a single dramatic bright silver-white midrib vein running boldly down the center of each leaf. This simple but striking two-tone contrast — deep velvety green against the luminous silver midrib — creates a visual precision and refinement that stands apart from the busier variegation of most Syngonium cultivars. The silver midrib is most vivid on young and intermediate leaves, giving the plant a constant visual reward as new leaves emerge fresh and bright before maturing. Syngonium Wendlandii is also considered a powerful Feng Shui plant — its upward-growing habit and air-purifying qualities are associated with positive energy and vitality. Syngonium Wendlandii for sale at Quinn’s Fins is pesticide-free and available in four sizes — bare root (SKU 6156-1, $11.99), 2″ pot (SKU 6156-2, $13.99), 3″ pot (SKU 6156-3, $17.99), and 4″ pot (SKU 6156-4, $19.99).

Pesticide-Free — Safe for Immediate Introduction

Every Syngonium Wendlandii for sale at Quinn’s Fins is grown pesticide-free in our on-site nursery greenhouse — no chemical pesticides, no systemic treatments, no harmful residues. This means your Syngonium Wendlandii can be introduced directly to your terrarium, paludarium, or aquaponic system immediately upon arrival without quarantine, chemical treatment, or extended rinsing.

At Quinn’s Fins, what you see is what you get — clean, pesticide-free, nursery-grown plants safe for your entire ecosystem from the moment they arrive.

Growing Syngonium Wendlandii — Care at a Glance

Light: Syngonium Wendlandii thrives in bright to medium indirect light. The silver midrib is most vivid and pronounced under medium to bright indirect light — in very low light, the silver coloration fades and the plant becomes more uniformly dark green. Avoid direct sunlight which scorches the velvety leaf surface. Can grow under artificial LED or fluorescent lighting.

Watering: Water once a week to every 10 days — allow the top few inches of soil to partially dry between waterings. Water thoroughly until drainage flows, then allow to partially dry. Syngonium Wendlandii does not tolerate standing in wet soil — root rot is the primary risk. Reduce watering in winter months.

Humidity: Prefers 60–80% humidity — this is its most important environmental requirement for the most lush, large-leafed growth. Thrives in terrariums and paludariums. In standard household conditions, misting, a humidifier, or pebble tray provides beneficial supplemental moisture.

Temperature: Maintain between 60–86°F (15–30°C). Protect from temperatures below 50°F and all cold drafts and air vents.

Climbing Support: Syngonium Wendlandii benefits from a moss pole, trellis, or stake — given vertical support, leaves size up significantly and the silver midrib becomes more prominent on larger leaf surfaces. Without support the plant stays more compact and bushy.

Aquaponic Use: Syngonium Wendlandii performs well in aquaponic and paludarium settings. Aerial roots extend readily into water and absorb excess nutrients, providing biofilter benefit while the distinctive velvety foliage grows above the waterline.

Toxicity: Toxic to cats, dogs, and humans if ingested — calcium oxalate crystals. Sap causes skin irritation — handle with gloves when pruning or propagating.

Propagation: Propagate from 4–6 inch stem cuttings taken below a node. Root in water or moist medium in a warm humid environment. Water rooting is particularly effective with this species — roots typically develop within 2–3 weeks.
