Syngonium podophyllum 'Milk Confetti'

Plant Features

Syngonium podophyllum 'Milk Confetti' is a gorgeous, rare and NEW aroid that features arrow-shaped leaves marbled with shades of green and pink patches. It's a must-have for any collector!

*Leaves have variable variegation, each new leaf is a surprise! Leaves can range from slightly variegated to almost white.

As far as rare plants go, the Syngonium 'Milk Confetti' stands on its own. The bushy growth pattern resembles a fresh cut flower arrangement, and the milky, cream colored arrowhead-shaped leaves are flecked with pastel or sometimes bright pink. An absolute stunner of a plant and one that is our personal favorite in the shop.

This plant prefers to be kept evenly moist but can tolerate drying out. It is resistant to pests (!!!) and can grow in both bright and low light. Guaranteed to put a smile on your face every time you look at it!

Important: It can be easy to confuse the Syngonium 'Milk Confetti' with the much more common Syngonium 'Confetti.'

Milk confetti have the white and pink confetti markings on the base of the petioles as well as the leaves. If the plant doesn't have that, you are not buying a true Milk Confetti and should not be paying top dollar for it!

Growing Instructions

Water propagation

Once you have your cutting you can place it in a vessel of water. People will often use test tubes or small jars for this because you typically will want something you can see through to monitor root development and water levels. You will want to make sure the leaf node is under water as this is where the roots will emerge.The process of root development will likely take about two weeks. In about a month total the root system will be extensive and strong enough to be transplanted to soil. Just take care to change out the water every 4 to 7 days or so, especially if you see it getting murky so there is less of a risk of a bacterial or fungal infection. If your water is especially hard with added minerals and fluoride it might be best to go for filtered or spring water for your propagation and later watering of your plants.

Soil propagation

You can choose to root your cuttings directly in soil. This method doesn't give you the visual access to monitor the root growth but it does mitigate any sort of shock your cutting might have once transported from water into the soil. Again, it is a personal preference which method you use. You can plant multiple cuttings in one pot to have a full pot once your cuttings take root and start putting out new growth. During this time you will want to keep the soil lightly moist but do not water as if it is a full grown plant. Give indirect light to shade conditions during this time of growth. After about a month your cuttings will have developed a robust enough root system to handle regular waterings and brighter light. Once you have your cuttings rooted and are putting out new growth you can treat your plant as a full sized Syngonium.

Lighting

This plant typically gets dappled light so partial shade or partial sun conditions work well. If you have a window facing East or West your plant will likely enjoy making that spot its new home. Often when you have heavily variegated plants they will need more light, as their leaves do not have as much photosynthesizing capabilities as greener or unvariegated counterparts. Keep this in mind when you are trying to find the perfect spot for your plant.

Soil, Water, and Humidity

Well-draining soils are a must, as these plants like to stay evenly moist but not soaked. Make sure to stay on top of watering regularly, about when the top 2 inches of soil is dry. Your plant would appreciate additional humidity if your house is dry, or during the winter time when hot air is likely being circulated. Invest in a humidifier or find a good spot in a humid room for your plant to live. Always protect your plant from hot/cold drafts and from cold temperatures.

Fertilizing

Fertilizing during the growing season can give your plant the boost of nutrients it needs to fill out its pot. When you do fertilize, make sure to follow the directions and possibly even start out with half the recommended strength. Without nutrients your plant will show signs of distress, but they also will show signs of distress from nutrient burn.
