Syngonium 'Moonlight’ is a stunning plant with bright, almost moonlight white leaves and a deep green edging. The foliage is heart shaped and grow to being quite large creating a beautiful statement piece in any home. This is a popular houseplant due to its forgiving nature, ability to grow in small spaces and adapt to various conditions.

Being a Syngonium this plant naturally helps purify the air, not only is this plant beautiful to look at but it’s also helping clean the air you breathe! These plants are perfect for indoor displays, patios and garden beds and look amazing growing in a pot or hanging basket.

☀️This plant requires bright indirect light, avoid any harsh light or positioning this plant too close to a window as scorching or leaf burn can occur. This plant is perfect for a low light area where you’d like to add a bit of green as it will adapt to low light conditions.

💧Syngoniums like their soil to be kept evenly moist and it’s best not to let them completely dry out in between waterings as the leaves can start to droop. They are also very easy to grow hydroponically or in other substrates like Leca. 

〰️These plants do require higher levels of humidity, leaf edges may dry and begin to brown if the ambient humidity is too low. You will generally start to see signs of this at the tips of the leaves. This isn't detrimental to the plant's health, but can look unsightly. You can increase humidity in your home by misting, grouping plants close together or sitting pot plants on a saucer filled with pebbles and water.

🌡️Like most popular houseplants, syngoniums prefer temperatures in the 18°C-30°C which is similar to their tropical native habitat. 

🪜As this syngonium starts to mature the plants may want to climb so giving this plant some sort of climbing support will ensure it grows exceptionally well. A moss pole or simple stake will work a treat. Some people do prefer to grow these plant in a hanging basket and let the stems hang down.

🍴It’s best to feed regularly during the warmer months and reduce frequency in winter. Alternatively, use a controlled release fertiliser at the beginning of spring and autumn.

✂️Remove dying or browning leaves and stems as required. Otherwise, there is no need to prune. These plants can be very easily grown by dividing mature clumps or from cuttings. 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. You can also plant fresh cutting straight into damp potting medium, but remember to keep them damp consistently until the cuttings produce roots.  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!

🪴Syngoniums prefer a well-draining potting mix. Using a mix of orchid bark, sphagnum moss, and perlite works well. They are also very commonly grown hydroponically with great success.

(You will receive a bare rooted plant, similar to the ones seen in the images. Each living plant is unique and may vary slightly in size, colour or shape.)
