# Hi all! Brought home this (Regina red?) syngonium in September. She…

_Posted by Katydid on 2025-01-08_

Hi all! Brought home this (Regina red?) syngonium in September. She started out a little too close to the window and ended up with sunburn, lost a bit of her color, but has been placed farther away for about 3 months and has seemed to bounce back.

She’s put out a ton of new shoots, but the leaves never seem to unfurl. The large leaf was my attempt to assist the process, but no change for over a month and a half. She gets bottom watered only when dry, definitely not root bound, and seems generally healthy otherwise (other than some dust).

Am I just being impatient?

Try misting it at least once a day

I just bought a similar syngonium a bit ago but compared to my berry allusion it does seem slower to unfurl. I'd say it's probably healthy enough if it's shooting out good new growth
