Thats ok! Arrowhead Plants (Arrowhead Vines, Syngoniums) grow like crazy and are very easy to propagate and plant.  You can root the cuttings in water or soil mx. 

Are you a beginner gardener?

I generally like to root houseplants in water because I can see what’s happening & how well the rooting is progressing. I just thought it would be fun to show you the root action in water vs the mix.   Check out the photo on next slide ----->

After rooting I prepared the soil I used 1/2 potting soil to 1/2 succulent & cactus mix. My DIY succulent and cactus mix has a lot of coco fiber & pumice in it.

STEPS TO PLANTING

(Optional: top with a 1/4in layer of worm compost)

Arrange the cuttings how they’ll best grow in. The mix is light so the cuttings tend to flop around a bit. Don’t worry if they’re not perfectly spaced – this plant fills in fast!

Decide which pot you will be using and fill the pot 3/4 the way full of mix.

Fill in with more mix & lightly press down on it to keep the cuttings in place. Add more mix if needed.

You want to water your newly planted cuttings soon after planting them. Mine had been rooting in water & a moist mix so I didn’t want to keep them dry for too long.

As for exposure, this is just like an established Arrowhead. You want too put it in bright natural light & make sure it doesn’t get direct hot sun.
