Syngonium 'Borealis-minima' care

Collectors know Syngonium 'Borealis-minima' for its steady pace; it keeps an upright clump even in imperfect corners.

It does best in morning sun with afternoon shade, though it tolerates brief departures without sulking. Water when the top third of the mix is dry; the fastest way to lose one is a saucer left full.

Keep it at a pebble tray in heated rooms; pot it in standard mix cut with a third perlite and refresh the top layer each spring. Propagation is straightforward from stem cuttings rooted in water.
