Syngonium ‘Mottled’

Syngonium‘Mottled’ produces soft, arrow-shaped leaves with creamy-white variegation that appears in unpredictable splashes, sectors, and speckles across the green. Some leaves are lightly dusted; others are half white. The variegation is unstable, which means no two leaves match, and each new unfurling is a surprise. It is a compact, bushy grower in its juvenile form, developing a climbing habit as it matures. Amoss polewill encourage larger, more mature foliage.

Origins
Syngoniums are native to the tropical rainforests of Mexico and Central America, where they grow as hemiepiphytes climbing from the forest floor into the canopy. ‘Mottled’ is a cultivar selected for its scattered white variegation.
