Care and Tips

Light & Location: Place your Syngonium Dwarf in bright indirect light for optimal growth and variegation. It can tolerate lower light conditions but may lose some variegation. Keep away from direct sunlight which can scorch the leaves, especially during Indian summers. Ideal locations include east or north-facing windows or 1-2 feet away from south-facing windows.

Watering: Water when the top 1 inch of soil feels dry to touch. Typically this means watering once every 5-7 days during summer and reducing to once every 10-14 days during winter. During monsoon season, ensure proper drainage to prevent root rot. Mist occasionally to increase humidity, especially in dry climate areas of India.

Soil & Fertilizer: Use a well-draining potting mix with some peat moss. Feed with balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer at half-strength once a month during growing season (March-October). Avoid fertilizing during winter months when growth naturally slows down.

Maintenance: Trim occasionally to maintain its compact shape and remove any yellow or damaged leaves. Wipe leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust and keep them shiny. Repot every 1-2 years or when roots begin growing through drainage holes.
