Syngonium ‘Three Kings’ is a striking arrowhead vine with large, dramatic leaves that display a mix of deep green, silver, and cream tones. Its bold, tropical foliage adds texture and interest to any indoor space, making it perfect for shelves, hanging baskets, or training along a trellis.
Light Requirements
It thrives in bright, indirect light. Too much direct sunlight can scorch the leaves, while too little light can slow growth and reduce the vibrancy of its variegation.
Watering and Humidity
Keep the soil lightly moist, allowing the top 1–2 cm to dry out between waterings. Syngonium ‘Three Kings’ enjoys higher humidity but tolerates average indoor conditions. Avoid waterlogged soil to prevent root rot.
Temperature and Fertiliser
Ideal temperatures are 18–26°C. Feed monthly during the growing season with a balanced liquid fertiliser to encourage lush, healthy foliage.
Pet and Terrarium Safety
❌ Toxic to cats, dogs, and reptiles due to insoluble calcium oxalate crystals. Ingestion may cause irritation, drooling, or digestive upset. Keep it out of reach of pets and avoid placing it in vivariums with reptiles.
Final Thoughts
Syngonium ‘Three Kings’ is a bold, easy-care plant that brings a tropical vibe indoors. Its large, variegated leaves make it a statement piece, perfect for collectors looking for dramatic foliage—but caution is needed if pets or reptiles are present.
