The Syngonium ‘Pink’, also known as Pink Arrowhead Plant, is a stunning, easy-care houseplant with soft pink, heart-shaped leaves. It thrives in indoor conditions and is perfect for beginners!


Light

  • Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain vibrant pink hues.
  • Can tolerate low light, but colors may fade, and growth may slow.
  • Avoid direct sun, which can scorch leaves.

💧 Watering

  • Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry.
  • Keep soil evenly moist but not soggy.
  • Reduce watering in winter when growth slows.

🌱 Soil

  • Use a well-draining, rich potting mix (peat-based with perlite and orchid bark).
  • Aroid mix works well for healthy root growth.

🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

  • Thrives in 65–80°F (18–27°C).
  • Avoid temperatures below 50°F (10°C).
  • Prefers high humidity (50% or more)—mist occasionally or use a humidifier.

🌿 Fertilizing

  • Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks in spring and summer.
  • No need to fertilize in winter.

✂️ Pruning & Propagation

  • Prune regularly to encourage bushy growth and remove yellowing leaves.
  • Propagate easily through stem cuttings in water or soil.

🪴 Support & Growth

  • Can be grown as a trailing plant in a hanging basket or trained to climb a moss pole.

🚨 Common Problems & Solutions

  • Yellow leaves? → Overwatering; let soil dry out more between waterings.
  • Leggy growth? → Needs more light or occasional pruning.
  • Brown leaf tips? → Low humidity or inconsistent watering.

Toxicity

  • Toxic to pets if ingested (contains calcium oxalate).
