Syngonium 'Borealis-viridis' care

Among the quieter members of the genus, Syngonium 'Borealis-viridis' forms a compact rosette and settles quickly indoors.

It does best in low to medium light, though it tolerates brief departures without sulking. It prefers to be watered when the leaves just begin to soften, and it will forgive a missed week far better than a doubled one.

It is happiest at a pebble tray in heated rooms, potted in a free-draining cactus-leaning mix. It responds visibly to a monthly feed through the growing season.
