Syngonium podophyllum - Panda
Syngonium 'Panda' is a rare variety of syngonium that has creamy/dark green speckled or blocky variegation.
Otherwise known as a arrowhead plant, these low-maintenance trailing houseplant are the perfect beginner or easy care plant for your collection! When mature, regular pruning will be required to keep this plant looking tidy unless given something to climb. Syngonium are widely used in office buildings due to their low maintenance characteristics. Because of its climbing habit, they make the perfect hanging basket on your verandah, bedroom corners and bathroom windows or for terrariums and green walls.
Bright to medium light, recommended placement is within a metre of a window |

Allow it to mostly dry between waterings but not entirely |
|
Give them well draining soil - adding about 20% to 30% perlite into your standard premium potting mix will do the trick. |
|
The best temperature range for your syngoniums is 20°C -35°C like other house plants |

Like other vine plants, they are fast growers and benefit from having something to hold on to like a moss pole, or something they can climb but will also look magnificent in a clump. These plants are also beautiful growers in an aquatic setting, simply clean off dirt and pop into your desired vessel making sure that the base of the plant is about the water level. Change the water as needed. |
|
They propagate from stem cuttings very easily. Just snip below a node, place in water and wait a few weeks and it’s that easy. Fast to root, easy to transplant to soil. It also very easy to separate clumps by untangle the root ball and simply potting each clump separately. This plant is made for propagating given its growth rate! |
|
These plants love humidity and will thrive very well with good levels, however will cope well regular spritzing to create own humidity. Syngonium Panda prefers high humidity and it should be kept slightly moist between watering. It prefers partial sun to bright filtered light. The soil should be kept lightly moist during spring and summer and slightly drier during the fall and winter months. Mist frequently, and don’t let it become completely dry. |
Toxic to pets! |
