SYNGONIUM PODOPHYLLUM 'BATIK'

NOTES:

1. The name presumably refers to the Indonesian wax-resist dyeing technique.

2. Unconfirmed: A highly cream-veined clone with sharp, well-delineated veins down to the tertiary level, forming a row of box-like windows along the margins and a submarginal ring or two of pale color, greener toward the tip and more greenish white toward the basal lobes. 'Batik Marble', sectored light yellow to cream, is a name Hatch proposes in place of 'Batik Variegated'.²
