Syngonium podophyllum 'Strawberry' brings warm pink to red-pink tones into the arrowhead shape of Syngonium. The leaves often show a soft green base or underside beneath the coloured surface, giving the plant a layered, flushed appearance.
Young plants grow as compact leafy clumps, then gradually form longer stems from the nodes. Regular tip pruning keeps the pot denser, while uncut stems can trail slightly as the plant matures.
'Strawberry' stays compact at first, then becomes more vine-like as the stems extend. To keep a dense plant, trim the longest shoots above a node and let new side growth fill the pot. For a looser shape, the stems can spill naturally or be guided upward.
The coloured tissue can mark under harsh light or dry stress. A position with bright filtered light keeps the stems shorter while reducing the chance of scorched pink areas.
Syngonium podophyllum cultivars contain calcium oxalate crystals. Chewing can irritate the mouth, tongue and throat, so keep the plant away from pets and children that investigate plants with their teeth.
The species behind this cultivar, Syngonium podophyllum, is a tropical American aroid liana first published by Schott in 1851. The genus name refers to united floral structures, and podophyllum is connected with the foot-like shape of the leaves.
