Know the Name of this plant? I received this free cutting and don’t know the name? It was in bad shape when I got it, so not sure it will make it. Five leaves per stem.

MulleinHm that’s a stumper for me. I was thinking philodendron goeldii, but that doesn’t quite look the same in comparison. That and it would be crazy to get a such a rare plant for free 😅 I’m curious what others say!

SunnyIt’s either a mature syngonium podophyllum albo variegata or syngonium aurea! It’s beautiful! The aurea will have gold or yellow markings on some of the leaves. The albo has no yellow markings and usually has pink leaf stems. The 5 leaf split typically happens to most syngoniums given enough height on a pole to climb. The split increases the surface area of the leaf when the plant reaches above the tree canopy in their native habitat. More surface area means more light absorption and a better chance of survival. An albo this size sells for about $35 to $40 in a 4 inch pot. A full size plant starts at $70, if you find one not sold out. An aurea unrooted cutting starts at $35! Getting a cutting of either one is awesome! My Albo is pictured.

TellieMine gets about 3-6 hours sun. About 5ft from window. It gets bright light rest of the day. You can get a grow if you like. Whatever you prefer.

Thanks Tellie! I’m adding a grow light now, but this is only my second time using a grow light, so I’m starting on a low setting and slowly increasing. I moved it to the other side of the room to avoid direct sunlight (west window), so now low natural light throughout the day and then adding the grow light. How do you usually add a grow light and find the right setting?

I have several syngoniums. Most get early morning light, sunrise to 9 am. A few get late afternoon light, 6pm to sunset. I live in Zone 9. So, the direct sunlight can be harsh outside of these hours. Plants in Northern regions can take more direct sunlight especially in winter. Position the grow light about 2 feet away from the plants to start. You can move them closer if the plants are craning their necks trying to get to the light or they are putting out long vines with few leaves and reaching for the light. A light meter can help.

I don’t use grow lights currently. I would say what you’re doing is good. I need to get some though 😩

I bought ring grow lights for individual plants. I got three grow light bulbs to replace the ones above my kitchen table. They are all by working out well. I got them from Amazon. Not too expensive. The ring lights are temporarily set up on a kitchen counter for the winter.
