Soil Preference: A standard, well-draining potting soil.
Fertilizing: Benefits from a well-balanced fertilizer applied 1x/month during spring/summer.
Repotting: Since your Syngonium will trail, they do not often outgrow their pot, but will benefit from repotting every 2-3 years to ensure soil nutrients.
