SYNGONIUM PODOPHYLLUM 'RED SPOT TRICOLOR'

Cultivar

NOTES:

1. The comparison cultivar in the 2024 patent for 'CLA 20230912', whose pinks and greens are darker and brighter.²

2. Unconfirmed: Perhaps the most truly tricolored clone in the genus, with large sectors of medium pink and smaller sectors and speckles of clean white to cream on green; some leaves are pink and white, others green and white, and the showiest carry all three. Also called 'Nak Tricolor'. Plants have sold for very high prices; Hatch saw offers of 2,500 US dollars in 2021.¹
