Arrow-head juvenile leaves grow to get a mature multi-lobed appearance. The compact plant body grows dense, branch-less stems having aerial roots or nodes for climbing. This low-maintenance and easy-to-propagate plant is suitable even for beginners. Thus, the complete botanical name of the plant is Syngonium podophyllum Neon Robusta. Genus Syngonium The word Syngonium is derived from the Greek language, referring to the fused ovaries of the female plants. This is a genus of flowering aroids, closely related to the sister genus Philodendron. They belong to the tropical rain forests of Mexico, West Indies, and America. These plants have unique transformational foliage. As the plant matures, the juvenile leaves grow and get more lobed. The typical arrow-like shape of the leaves gives the common name arrow-head plants to the Syngonium. The leaves of the parent plant, the cultivar Neon are comparatively lighter in shade. This is the basic differentiating feature between the New Syngonium and its parent cultivar Neon. Syngonium Neon Robusta Care Water Requirement These plants have a medium tolerance for droughts. However, they usually love moist soil. A simple strategy for summer is to water thoroughly after the upper layer of soil gets about 70% dry. However, in winter, water right after the soil gets completely dry. Twice a week in summer and once in two weeks in winter is an estimated frequency. Importantly, always avoid over-watering. Soggy soil is highly unsuitable for these plants and may lead to fungus and root rot. Sunlight Requirement Semi-shade with indirect sunlight is the ideal condition for the plant. Howbeit, the Syngoniums are usually resistant to a variety of light conditions including a well-lit shady area. The complete shade is not bearable by the plant. Possible symptoms of inadequate light include leggy stems and foliage discolouration. If you see these features in your plant, consider shifting to a well-lit area right away. Importantly, always avoid keeping the plant in direct sunlight. As this may burn the delicate Robusta leaves. Temperature Requirement The optimal temperature range for the plant is 60 to 85 F.( 15 to 29 C). These plants are not frosted hardy. Thus, prefer keeping them in a warm area as soon as the days get cold. Humidity Requirement Being nave to rainforests, these plants are humidity lovers. About 70% humidity in the air shows good results for the foliage. You can manage the dry days by mild misting. Moreover, you can place a pebble-water tray under the plot. However, avoid keeping the plants wet for long. Soil Requirement This plant needs a rich, well-drained, and light substrate. Potting mixes are better and light as compared to the potting soils. You can also mix a store-bought potting mix with a peat-based medium.
