I am pleased to introduce two of my favorite plants!. These are syngonium podophyllum Albo variegatum, ‘Marble,’ one of the most underrated arrowheads out there because you have to see it up close to understand why “stunning” is the best description for this variety. I bought the larger one in the 3.5” pot about 5 months ago to add to my syngonium collection and it was on sale online at Steve’s Leaves. I liked it so much that I bought a second smaller one a month later online at Gabriella Plants. I was slow to repot because both plants are flourishing in the pudding cup nursery pots! So, why mess with it? These are great because they haven’t shown brown tips and no yellowing in the months I have had them. The larger one has several vines and regularly put out new leaves that are unique. It’s like the plant is trying to come up with as many color and pattern mutations as it can think up. So, it’s a delight to see what will unfurl. The solid white half moon sections are a crisp clean white that shows well next to the variegated and emerald green areas. It’s nicknamed Syngonium White Knight Albo for a reason! There are gray olive colors blended with in as well. You just have to see it!

    That’s a long intro! Did I mention the leaf stems are a shade of pink?😍 Yes! Pink! They have been pink for 5 months! I’m just waiting for the day they change to green, but, they stay 💖pink! 💕😆 The only downside is the price. They are about 50% to double the common arrowheads, but, they are worth it and they often go on sale.

      Yes, most of my plants are on my north facing covered deck in bright shade. They get direct sun the last 2 hours before sunset. So, the intensity is less. They have never sunburned. These get Zone 9 high humidity, high temperatures (heatwave 100°F) and tap water twice a day because of being in the little pots. I have hard water. The plants don’t seem to mind.

      The biggest one is from Steve’s Leaves. I’ve gotten most of my syngoniums from there. Their plants are very healthy vigorous growers. The big one was much smaller. It has tripled in size in 5 months in the original pot. I fertilized once with Miracle Gro blue liquid. Added Osmocote timed release fertilizer a couple of weeks ago.

      Its similar to a vine. It’s an epiphyte. Like a monstera it will attach to other plants to climb to get sunlight in a rainforest. But, it can grow upright to a certain length without providing a pole to climb. The longer branches just hangs over the pot. But, providing a climbing pole allows the adult form of the leaves to come out. The adult form of the leaf is drastically different. The leaves shown are the juvenile form. They will stay this shape without a climbing pole.
