She did not take well to being shipped in the midwestern ...
#Syngonium #WhiteButterfly
Her leaves withered and fell, and she was rooting out of her nursery pot.
I repotted and trimmed the dead leaves, besides that mold the roots look fine (i think?)
Basically, the roots are healthy but she’s bald now. Is there any chance she’ll grow?

@greenthumbplumb Oh dear, Im so sorry! 😭 But hey, with roots that good looking, you could always try! At least I would! ☺️
I would just make sure your syngonium has a very stable, warm, and humid environment while it hopefully makes a full recovery. I would put it under a humidity dome, clear Rubbermaid style bin, or you could even just rubber band a ziplock bag over the top of the pot. If you have a seedling heat mat, I would put the pot on it, with a towel or tray between the pot and the mat. If you don’t have a heat mat, I would put your syngonium in the warmest (65°-80°, but 70°-80° would be best) most stable spot in your place. Crack the lid of the humidity dome, box, at least every day, or a few times per week, depending on your climate. You just don’t want the air to be too stagnant for too long because that’s a good environment for fungus/bacteria. Hopefully you still have some viable nodes that new growth can happen. You probably won’t need to water too much at all, just try to keep the substrate evenly and lightly moist, without letting it dry out or too soggy. Good luck!! 🫶🏼🩶🌿 Let us know if we can help your further. I would love an update 🤞🏼

If they did not offer winter protection for you to buy, send photo and ask for refund.
If you did buy winter protection, send email with photo and ask for refund.
If they did offer it and you didn't buy winter protection, this is unfortunately will be a long recovery. You did right to recover, hoping it grows for you.
