4" Syngonium Pink Splash

Syngonium Pink Splash is a charming and popular indoor plant known for its distinctive pink and green variegated leaves. Here are some care tips to help you keep your Syngonium Pink Splash thriving:

1. Light: Provide bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sun exposure, as it can scorch the leaves. If the leaves start to lose their variegation, it might be an indication that the plant is getting too much light.

2. Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist but not soggy. Allow the top inch or so of soil to dry out between waterings. It's better to underwater than overwater, as Syngoniums are susceptible to root rot.

3. Humidity: These plants prefer higher humidity levels. You can increase humidity by misting the leaves or placing a tray of water near the plant. In dry indoor environments, consider using a humidifier.

4. Temperature: Syngonium Pink Splash prefers temperatures between 60-80°F (15-27°C). Protect it from drafts and cold temperatures, as they are sensitive to extreme cold.

5. Fertilization: Feed your Syngonium with a balanced, liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce or stop feeding in the winter months when growth slows down.

6. Repotting: Repot your Syngonium Pink Splash when it becomes root-bound, usually every 2-3 years. Choose a pot that's slightly larger than the current one, and use a well-draining potting mix.

7. Pruning: Regularly prune or pinch off the tips of the vines to encourage bushier growth and to maintain a compact shape.

8. Pest Control: Keep an eye out for common houseplant pests like spider mites, mealybugs, and aphids. If you notice any infestations, treat your plant promptly with insecticidal soap or neem oil.

9. Support: Provide a small trellis or stake for your Syngonium to climb if you want it to grow vertically. This can help maintain its shape and appearance.

10. Propagation: You can propagate Syngonium Pink Splash through stem cuttings placed in water or a suitable potting mix. Wait until the cutting has developed roots before transplanting it into a new container.

By following these care tips, you can enjoy the beautiful foliage of the Syngonium Pink Splash and watch it thrive in your indoor space.
