Air Layering with Syngonium Albo Vol.2

Hi! We are @shinryoku_plant_interior based in Singapore.

In this post, we would like to share the updates of air layering for Syngonium Albo.

Please check previous post if you have not checked it yet 🙂

Cutting Air layering

We got enough roots to propagate in 5days since we started air layering.

We cut each of air layering.

Now we have 4 another seedlings from one seedling.

Each seedling will have new babies. That’s how we can create more pots from one pot.

We cut each air layering at closet point of node where aerial roots came.

We don’t need vine between node and node as they could be rotten in the soil.

You can see that new roots grew up from aerial roots.

Since aerial roots is not designed for soil, we need roots which is easily adopt to soil before we propagate them.

We personally remove moss around roots roughly before potting as moss contain a lot of water, and it could be a cause of root rot.

But it’s fine to not completely remove them otherwise you will damage roots.

Regarding to soil, we usually mix normal potting mix, coco coir and perlite by ourselves.

You can also consider to mix moss if your pot dries really quick.

Syngonium loves coco coir and moss fyi.

We don’t have specific ratio, but we change the ratio depends on material of pot, and where to place the pot.

We hope they settle down well and have beautiful variegated leaves!

Will keep updating 😉
