Barely pink anymore πŸ˜”πŸ˜”

Recently Circe hasn't really been putting out pink leaves like she did before, at least not at the top. There's a section lower down that's still putting out pink leaves, but the taller section progressively gets greener
2ft to light, direct
8” pot with drainage

@alec08 Here is my Syngonium 95% of new growth are light green. I found this articleβ€”- Pink Syngonium Pro Tips & Problem Solving

Fading pink leaves / more green leaves
Look at your light conditions to solve this one. In my experience those pretty pink leaves will fade if there's too much light. Too little light and I also find my girls revert to more green leaves. Try a new spot for a while and see what the new growth does. I find around the medium end of bright is ideal. It is normal to get a mix of some purely pink, some green, and some in-betweener leaves. https://www.lovethatleaf.co.nz/blogs/plant-care-guides/pink-syngonium-neon-care-guide#:~:text=Fading%20pink%20leaves%20%2F%20more%20green,revert%20to%20more%20green%20leaves.
@alec08 I have the same problem with my Syngonium Confetti and I read to give them more light and also have read not direct light because it could fade the leaves. Mine is now getting lots of sun in (WINDOW DIRECTION CORRECTED by my husband) East facing window and still hardly any pink leaves.
I would recommend giving it less direct light for a few months and see how it grows. I have mine (similar plant) in a corner of my east-facing shower and it gets no direct light. I saw it yeae#tersay and it's lookin AMAZINGLY pink. (:
