Syngonium Confetti is a charming arrowhead cultivar with light-green, arrow-shaped leaves freckled and splashed with random spots of pink, as if sprinkled with confetti. No two leaves look alike, giving it a playful, collectible appeal. Compact and bushy when young, it eventually trails or climbs and can be trained on a small support. Easy and fast-growing, it does best in bright indirect light and warm, humid indoor conditions. Its speckled pink-on-green foliage adds a soft, cheerful accent to desks, shelves and bathrooms. Forgiving and low-fuss, it is well suited to beginners and indoor plant collections alike.

Growing tips
In India keep Confetti in bright shade for the best pink freckling and raise humidity during dry months; avoid direct sun, which fades the markings and scorches leaves.
