Syngonium Podophyllum • Orm Nagpum Variegata

Please wait while the plant information is loaded.

Light

Bright, indirect light (Variegated forms may fade in low light)

Watering

Water when top inch of soil is dry

Feeding and fertiliser

Feed every 4–6 weeks during active growth at quarter to half strength. Do not fertilise fresh unrooted cuttings.

Potting mix

40% coarse orchid bark, 30% potting mix, 20% perlite, 10% worm castings

Propagation

Stem cuttings

Support notes

Moss poles transform Syngoniums — mature arrow leaves, bushier growth, and better cuttings.

Additional care notes

Variegated types benefit from higher light and humidity. Support poles help mature growth.

Mature size

Mature indoor size varies with the species, support, light and root space. Expect gradual development into a fuller specimen rather than a fixed final size.

Dormancy and winter growth

No true dormancy is normally required indoors. Growth may slow during the darker UK winter, so reduce watering and feeding in line with the plant's actual growth rate.
