- Can be placed outside on a shaded terrace or balcony during the summer.
Watering & care

- Let the surface of the substrate dry between waterings.
- Water with soft water (filtered or rested).
- Lightly mist its foliage to maintain ambient humidity.
- Apply diluted fertilizer every 2 to 3 weeks in spring and summer.

Verdeia tips
- Rotate your Syngonium regularly for even foliage.
- Avoid too dark locations: the variegation would fade.
- Repot in spring in a light and draining substrate (potting soil + perlite).
- Avoid excess water: better a slight lack than too much moisture.
- Observe its shades: the more diffuse and stable the light, the more vibrant its marbling will be.
