Care Plan for Syngonium podophyllum T24:

Light:

• Thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate medium light conditions. Direct sunlight should be avoided to prevent leaf scorch, which can affect the variegation.

Watering:

• Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. It’s important to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Ensure that the pot has proper drainage to prevent root rot.

Humidity:

• Prefers moderate to high humidity. Aim for a humidity level of around 60-70%. If the air is too dry, consider using a humidifier or regularly misting the plant to maintain its vibrant foliage.

Temperature:

• Ideal temperatures range between 16-27°C changes, which can stress it.

Soil:

• A well-draining potting mix is essential. An aroid mix with added perlite or orchid bark works well to provide the necessary aeration and drainage.

Fertilisation:

• Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertiliser every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). In autumn and winter, reduce fertilisation as the plant’s growth naturally slows down.
