#Syngonium #HappyPlants #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #TheWateringHole it was time to water all my Arrowhead plants today!!!! They are all looking pretty good and getting healthy again after battling a long round of thrips. I did lose 2 other plants but at least these survived!
Love Syngoniums! After Tradescantia they're my favorite. First fell in love a few years ago when someone gifted me a box of cuttings, two of them were a syngonium mojito & a three kings. And like trads, they're very susceptible to thrips 😕 How did you get rid of thrips? Which plants did you lose? They almost wiped out my trad and callisia collection but thankfully was able to save all but two, a zebrina 'purple plush' and one of my baby bunny bellies 😢
@Shells_Garden Theyvlook beautiful, Michelle! I’m also curious about how you dealt with the thrips!
@stephongreg @debbiedo I’ve been using two different spray insecticides and cleaning them all by hand with mild soap and damp cloth as well as hosing them down in the tub. I also repotted everything affected and got rid of all the dirt in my green waste bin. The plants I lost were another Syngonium and a pothos NJoy which I think is the plant that brought thrips home.
