Botanical Name: Syngonium podophyllum 'Albo'

Common Name(s): Albo Syngonium, White Variegated Syngonium

The Syngonium Albo is a stunning and highly sought-after cultivar, prized for its striking variegated foliage. The leaves of this plant showcase a beautiful blend of creamy white, pale green, and darker green tones, creating a marble-like effect that makes each leaf uniquely beautiful. The arrowhead-shaped foliage is not only elegant but also adds a touch of sophistication to any space, making it a popular choice among plant collectors and decorators. As the plant matures, the variegation becomes more pronounced, making it an even more captivating feature in your indoor plant collection.

This variety thrives in bright, indirect light to preserve its variegation, although it can tolerate lower light conditions. However, the lack of light may result in less vibrant coloring and slower growth. The Syngonium Albo prefers a well-draining, moisture-retentive soil mix and should be watered regularly, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. It thrives in average room temperatures and humidity, though it will do better in a slightly more humid environment. Placing it in a bathroom or kitchen with good air circulation will encourage faster growth and help maintain its health.

Air Purifying Qualities:

• Toxin Removal: The Syngonium Albo is effective at filtering out harmful indoor pollutants, such as formaldehyde and xylene, contributing to a cleaner and fresher atmosphere in your home.
• Oxygen Production: Like many houseplants, it absorbs carbon dioxide and releases oxygen, improving air quality and enhancing your living space.
• Humidity Regulation: The Syngonium Albo helps to raise humidity levels slightly through its natural transpiration process, which is especially beneficial in dry indoor environments.

Note: While the Syngonium Albo is considered midly-toxic to pets. Please prevent pets from chewing on the leaves to avoid potential digestive upset.
