Syngonium Godzilla, also known as Syngonium podophyllum 'Godzilla', is a rare but interesting variegated houseplant that can add a touch of tropical beauty to your home or office. Here are some tips for caring for this plant:
-
Light
Syngonium Godzilla prefers bright, indirect light, but can also tolerate low light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the plant's leaves. -
Soil
Use a rich, well-draining soil to avoid root rot. We use a mixture of fir bark, perlite and all peat supplanted with charcoal and worm castings. -
Watering
Keep the soil moist, but not waterlogged. Allow the top inch of soil to dry out before watering again. Avoid letting the plant sit in standing water. -
Temperature
Syngonium Godzilla prefers temperatures between 65-80 degrees Fahrenheit (18-27 degrees Celsius). -
Humidity
This plant thrives in high humidity environments. You can increase the humidity around the plant by misting it regularly or placing it on a tray of pebbles filled with water. -
Fertilizer
Feed Syngonium Godzilla once a month during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer. -
Pruning
Prune the plant as needed to shape it and remove any yellow or brown leaves. -
Propagation
Syngonium Godzilla can be propagated by taking stem cuttings with one or more active node. Root in moist sphagnum moss (or water) and transfer to soil once secondary roots develop.
With proper care, your Syngonium Godzilla can thrive and continue to add beauty to your home or office for years to come.
