The Cissus antarctica, also known as kangaroo vine, is a climbing plant native to Australia. It is distinguished by its dark green, glossy and serrated leaves, carried by long, flexible stems. Thanks to its tendrils, it can cling to a support and climb, or trail elegantly when grown as a hanging plant. Vigorous and easy to adapt to different indoor environments, it is appreciated for its dense foliage and its generous growth.
Generally considered non- toxic to cats and dogs, but it is preferable to check with a veterinary source in case of ingestion
