Syngonium Milk Confetti (Arrowhead Plant)

Splashed and speckled leaves in creamy white and green — a confetti of colour on every arrow-shaped leaf.

The Syngonium Milk Confetti is a charming variety with irregular white and pale green marbling across its arrowhead leaves. Like all Syngoniums it is fast-growing, easy to care for and adapts beautifully to bright indoor spaces. Grow it bushy with regular pruning or let it trail for a cascading effect.

Care

• Light: Bright indirect light; tolerates medium light — avoid direct sun which burns leaves
• Water: Every 7–10 days in spring/summer; allow top 2–3 cm to dry out; reduce in winter
• Humidity: High (40%+); mist regularly or use a pebble tray
• Temperature: 15°C–29°C; avoid cold draughts
• Difficulty: Easy
• Pet friendly: No — toxic to cats and dogs

Care tips

• Use a well-draining, airy mix — standard potting soil with added perlite or bark. Ensure the pot has drainage holes.
• Prune leggy stems regularly to encourage a bushy, compact shape.
• Feed with a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer monthly during spring and summer.
• Bright indirect light preserves the white variegation — too little light causes it to revert to green.
• ⚠️ Keep away from cats and dogs — Syngonium is toxic if ingested by pets.
