The most notable feature of the Syngonium is its leaves, which change shape as the plant matures. Young leaves are typically heart-shaped or have a distinct arrowhead shape (hence the name). As the plant matures and begins to vine, the leaves can develop multiple lobes, taking on a more complex, star-like or “foot-shaped” appearance.
It thrives in medium to low light conditions. The plant’s color and variegation will be most vibrant in bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can burn the delicate leaves. Too little light, however, can cause the plant to become leggy and lose its variegation.
Water your Syngonium when the top inch or two of soil feels dry to the touch. It appreciates consistently moist soil but does not tolerate being waterlogged, which can lead to root rot. If the leaves start to droop, it is a sign that the plant is thirsty.
