This is a fast-growing vining plant that remains compact, can be grown in a pot or as a house plant. This plant is easy to care for and loves to climb and thrives in bright indirect light.
Pinnate foliage is depending on the individual plant's stage of life. Young plants have juvenile leaves that are not divided, but as the plant grows, they will start splitting.
