Syngonium Pixie
Syngonium podophyllum Schott
The plant, by the plant
Small on purpose, forever. I'm the Syngonium Pixie - a genuine genetic dwarf of the arrowhead vine. While my cousins scheme about climbing your bookshelf, I top out around 30cm and simply perfect myself: crisp little arrowhead leaves veined in silvery cream, sized for desks, shelves and windowsills, permanently.
Care is beginner-grade: medium, indirect light, keep me lightly moist in a warm spot, and ease off the water if I ever look pale. That's the whole manual.
What you'll get (no surprises):
- Small - 110mm nursery pot, approx 10cm
- Medium - 140mm nursery pot, approx 15-20cm
- Large - 200mm nursery pot, approx 25-30cm
Pets: pixie-sized but still not a snack - toxic if chewed.
My most famous pairing is the Laiton Brass Pot in Gold - desk luxury, complete. A Recycled Woven Basket works the relaxed angle instead.

Care tips
Will thrive in bright indirect light. Water regularly and allow the soil to dry out in between waterings. Fertilise in warmer months.
Feeding
To get the best out of your indoor plants, you will need to feed them some food. The Good Plant Co Indoor Plant Food will provide all the nutrients they need to grow more leaves and help them stay strong. When the plant is actively growing during the warmer months, it needs a bit more food and water. During the slow growing season (cooler winter months) your plant doesn’t eat or drink as much (no extra winter layer of fat for these babies). Sometimes it’s ok to be a helicopter parent – respond to your plant’s needs. To keep the dust off your beautiful indoor plant leaves use The Good Plant Co Leaf Shine. Moral of the story, if it is growing new leaves then it will need more water and food!
