{"product_id":"syngonium-podophyllum-white-butterfly","title":"Syngonium podophyllum ‘White Butterfly’","description":"\u003cp\u003eA popular tropical aroid prized for its soft, creamy green foliage and distinctive arrow-shaped leaves. Native to the tropical regions of Mexico, Central America, and northern South America, the species begins with compact arrowhead-shaped juvenile foliage and develops larger, more divided leaves as it matures. ‘White Butterfly’ is especially attractive for its pale silvery white to creamy green leaf centers surrounded by deeper green margins, creating a delicate butterfly-like appearance. Although often grown as a compact tabletop plant, Syngoniums are naturally climbing vines and can develop larger, more mature foliage when given a moss pole or other support. Its fast growth, easy-going nature, and beautiful foliage make it an excellent choice for both beginning plant enthusiasts and established tropical collections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e🌞 Light\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProvide bright, indirect light for the best coloration and vigorous growth. It will tolerate moderate light, but very low light can result in weaker growth and less distinctive coloration. Avoid prolonged intense direct sunlight, which can scorch the foliage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e💧 Watering\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWater thoroughly when the upper inch of soil feels dry. Keep the soil lightly and evenly moist during active growth while allowing excess water to drain completely. Avoid allowing the plant to remain in saturated soil, as prolonged overwatering can lead to root rot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e🕳️ Soil\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse a loose, rich, well-draining potting mixture. Indoor potting soil amended with perlite and fine orchid bark provides a good balance of moisture retention, drainage, and airflow around the roots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e🧪 Fertilizing\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer diluted to half strength. Reduce fertilizing during fall and winter when growth naturally slows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e🪴 Repotting\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRepot during spring or early summer when roots begin crowding the container or emerging through the drainage holes. Choose a pot one size larger with adequate drainage. A climbing support can also be added during repotting if larger, more mature growth is desired.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kent's Bromeliad","offers":[{"title":"5 inch","offer_id":47194976092333,"sku":"ET-47194976092333","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/0060\/3565\/files\/17EF51D2-0D8A-4848-9463-6398963DD3FB_1_105_c.jpg?v=1786195170","url":"https:\/\/sarahcottaplants.com\/products\/syngonium-podophyllum-white-butterfly","provider":"SarahCotta Plants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
