(Syngonium Batik)

General

Syngonium Batik plant, also known as Arrowhead Vine/Arrowhead Plants, gets its name from Indonesia’s wax-dyed cloth. It is low maintenance, vine-like plant with green arrowhead-shaped leaves. This climbing plant will grow up trellis or coir pole or trail down to create a great desktop plant or hanging basket. A simple yet elegant and versatile houseplant, Syngonium is extremely easy to grow and requires very little attention.

NASA research has found this plant to be a top air purifier. It can purify the surrounding air from deadly toxins like Toluene, Xylene and Benzene, making it one of the best Air Purifying Plants.

The Syngonium can grow as tall as 3 – 6 feet and as wide as 1 – 2 ft.

While they don’t often bloom, Syngonium can occasionally produce white flowers.

Sunlight

Smaller plants tend to thrive in partial shade. But as they grow, they can tolerate more light.

Avoid direct sunlight as that will scorch their leaves.

If there is more growth on one side, it is likely to be receiving more sunlight than the other side. Rotate the pot to ensure consistent growth.

It is important to water your Arrowhead Plants before the top one inch of the soil drys out. Don’t let it get completely dry.

The soil mix should be kept lightly moist during spring & summer, and slightly drier during fall & winter.

Your Arrowhead Plants loves a humid environment. Hence, it’s advisable to mist your plant in dry weather or if placed indoors when the humidity is low.

For repotting, use a combination of 40% Potting Soil + 25% cocopit + 25% Organic manure/Vermicompost + 5% charcoal chips + 5% perlite.

Fertiliser:

Fertilize your Arrowhead Plants every 2 to 3 weeks in the growing season. It is best to choose a liquid fertilizer that is high in nitrogen, as it will help your plant flourish.

Additional Care Information:

Clean your Syngonium’s leaves every fortnight to prevent dust accumulation.
