I can absolutely recommend Syngonium Podophyllum Mottled “Mojito”. Mine grows like a weed. Apart from that I like Syngonium Starlite because it’s much more delicate in it’s growth and tends to stay smaller.

Mine is in an east facing window with direct light in the morning. It didn't do much for 6 months or so but then started growing like a weed too. It must have put on about 1m (3 feet) in about 4 months! It's growing as a single vine though and I'd prefer something a little more bushy so I'm going to chop it up this weekend and replant the props in the same pot once they have roots. I don't know if single vine is it's normal growth pattern, I'm used to a bushier growth patterns from other syngoniums.

I have over 30 different Syngoniums. My favorites are regular confetti, Angustatum, Go Glo, Albo, Aurea, Godzilla, Margarita, Three Kings and of course Chiapense and Variegated Chiapense. And yes I have my Nursery that gets ALL my money. Shout out to Wild Roots, New Braunfels, Texas USA! 😂💖

My poison for pink syngoniums is the Red Spot cos mine has lots of darkish pink splotches and speckles and the leaves are a darker shade of green. My Erythrophyllum is still small as it's relatively new in my collection. And yes a loyalty card from Bunnings from me would be AWESOME just like they do with coffee...every 10th plant I buy should be free 😆 And yeah the Butterfly one here is like a weed, growing EVERYWHERE (at least in Sydney). Am still thinking of getting the Wendlandii but keep passing by it because of its velvetiness. And will definitely look out for the Chiapense! I also have the Frozen Heart which reminds me of your chiapense but it doesn't feel rubbery. But my all time favourite syngonium is the Panda...yeah go figure!

I don’t have the greatest luck with Syngonium Podophyllum. They survive, but they don’t seem to thrive in my house. I have Neon, Milk Confetti and an unknown one that looks like it might be Maria. I also have a Llano Carti Road which is doing ok. And my FAVORITE one which is Frosted Heart. I think Frosted Heart is a variation of Chiapense, because it has those fabulous rubbery leaves. It has the white frosty pattern to the leaves, particularly the newer leaves, and despite that, it also grows pretty fast. I also very much want a Chiapense Albo! It might be a while, they seem to have gone up in price recently here in the Minneapolis, MN area of the US.

Syngoniums are so pretty. I always wanted one, but they just slipped my mind when purchasing plants. Or it was in my shopping cart, but when it came to pre-checkout cleanup of the cart, it went out again. Last summer I got a Syngonium erthrophyllum and I was immediately in love with those dramatic dark green and red leaves. I love the P. micans for the same reason. It has given me some grief, but that was the planter's fault. Do you know how they sometimes leave the nursery net on the rootball when repotting? With this it wasn't just a net, it was a small, really robust plastic pot. I thought the poor plant was having root rot, because the soil was sogging wet and it showed symptoms of being thirsty. Fortunately I caught it before it came to that, but it still had been a few weeks of this. This little champion was healthy, just a bit uncomfy in the tiny container. So yeah, definitely a hardy plant ❤
