Syngonium Strawberry Ice #0009

Syngonium ‘Strawberry Ice’ is a stunning and sought-after variety within the Syngonium family, known for its arrowhead-shaped leaves with variegation in shades of pink, green, and white. This tropical aroid is relatively easy to care for and thrives in bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate low-light conditions, maintaining good lighting will enhance the vibrant variegation.

Care Guidelines:

1. Light: Place it in a location with bright, indirect light, avoiding direct sunlight to prevent leaf burn.

2. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry.

3. Temperature: It grows best in temperatures between 60-75°F (15-24°C) and can tolerate moderate humidity levels around 50% or higher for optimal growth.

4. Soil and Fertilizer: A well-draining potting mix with organic matter (such as peat) ensures healthy root development. Fertilize monthly during the growing season with diluted liquid fertilizer to support its growth.

5. Propagation: Propagating this plant is simple through stem cuttings, which can be rooted in water or directly in soil.

Although Syngonium ‘Strawberry Ice’ is forgiving if watering schedules are missed occasionally, maintaining a regular watering pattern is beneficial. This plant can also develop aerial roots, making it suitable for climbing structures or poles.
