Syngonium 'Panda' Ø10.5cm

Syngonium 'Panda' (S. podophyllum) - variegated cultivar with mint-green, cream, and silver mottled pattern on deep green. Each leaf unique. Stable variegation. Toxic (calcium oxalate) - keep away from cats/dogs/children. Ø10.5cm pot. Care instructions Light: bright indirect (~10,000-20,000 lux). 1-1.5 m from an east/west window or behind a curtain on a south-facing window. Direct sun burns the leaves; bright indirect light keeps the variegation at its best. Temperature: optimal 18-27°C. Keep it above 15°C - tropical species. Watering: moderate - water when 30-50% of the substrate is dry (top 2-3 cm dry). Summer every 5-7 days, winter every 10-14 days. Good drainage is key - let excess water drain away freely rather than sitting in the pot. Humidity: 50-60% sufficient for robust growth; happily tolerates apartments with standard humidity. Substrate: airy, moderate retention - a mix of coco coir, medium pine bark, perlite, and natural sphagnum. Drainage layer of Vulkaponic at the pot base. Support: optional - moss pole or totem for the formation of mature lobed leaves. Fertilising: monthly spring-summer with diluted balanced liquid fertiliser. Propagation: stem cuttings with at least one node, in water, moist sphagnum, or LECA; roots in 2-4 weeks. Very high success rate. Specifications Pot diameter: 10.5 cm Total height (incl. pot): 15 cm
