Syngonium angustifolium

A little-known Syngonium name with only four wild records, in Tabasco and Chiapas (Mexico) and Belize at 50–550 m. One label describes an epiphyte on a shrub with milky sap and a 4 m stem, scattered in the shade of tall evergreen forest. Its identity is poorly documented, so care is based on the genus and the measured climate.
