Jayme Garden Syngonium Three Kings

An unrooted cutting is a stem segment taken from a parent plant that does not yet have its own root system. This specific cutting comes with two healthy nodes, which are the critical growth points where new roots will emerge once placed in water or a propagation medium.

Place the cutting in a jar of clean water, ensuring the nodes are fully submerged while keeping the leaves above the water line. Change the water weekly to keep it oxygenated, and place the jar in a spot with bright, indirect light until roots are at least two inches long before potting.

Syngonium 'Three Kings' is known for its beautiful, mottled variegation, but like many variegated plants, it can be unpredictable. Providing consistent, bright, indirect light helps the plant maintain its unique coloring as it grows.

No, this plant is not pet-friendly. Syngonium podophyllum contains calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation or discomfort if ingested by cats or dogs, so it is best kept in a location out of reach.

While it adapts well to average indoor humidity, this Syngonium will grow faster and produce larger leaves in a more humid environment. If your home is particularly dry, a pebble tray or a nearby humidifier can help it settle in.

Once established in soil, allow the top inch of the potting mix to dry out completely before watering again. Overwatering is the most common issue with Syngoniums, so ensure your pot has adequate drainage holes.
