Beautiful syngonium! I have a tiny tiny variegated one. Iβm up to 3 leaves so Iβm thrilled. I see your brown spots. My guess is that itβs 1 of two things: 1 possible spider mites. Whenever I bring a new plant home I always spray it gently with cool water from my sink sprayer to wash off any possible pests from the nursery. I let it dry and then spray with a 50/50 mix rubbing alcohol and a very diluted soapy water. I just use a small squirt of natural dish soap for the water. The alcohol will kill any lingering pests. I keep my new plants alone in quarantine for 1-2 weeks. And I follow up after a couple days with a neem oil spray. And then agin after a couple days with the alcohol soapy water spray. Making sure that any pests or their eggs hatching are wiped out. (Sorry for the long explanation) πΊ and #2 Leaves with a lot of white tend to have a shorted life span because of their inadequate photosynthesis abilities and the often get brown and fall off. But that doesnβt really look to be the case with your leaf. I vote for possible pest issue , maybe in the past at the nursery, but just to be safe spray that baby down! π₯³πͺ΄π»
