Description
Appearance
The leaves are broad, heart shaped, and deeply split with marbling that looks almost painted. The creamy patterns stay consistent and unique on every leaf, creating a constellation-like effect.
Growth Habit
This plant is a natural climber. Give it a moss pole or trellis and it will reward you with larger leaves and more fenestrations as it matures. Growth is moderate but steady under the right conditions.

Dealing with Pests

- Fungus gnats can be prevented with well-draining soil and letting the top layer dry slightly between waterings.
