Hey Syngonium friends ! I’m concerned about my milk confetti ! She went from look nice and healthy (LEFT) when I got her to looking like the picture on the right . I did notice her roots seemed a little fuzzy when I took her out the pot to check her . Unfortunately we did have about a week or so without water due to not being able to get to her cause wasps . Any suggestions or know what the cause of fuzzy roots are ?

the fuzzy stuff are actually called hair roots, they grow off of larger roots to absorb more water. totally normal and healthy :)

Harper already answered the fuzzy root question. Just get her back on a regular watering schedule and I think she will be fine.
