Egg on my face---after preaching about making certain for us all to change
the subject line, I failed to do so in my earlier posting (see below) of
this. SORRY!

I believe this is one of thye MANY vars. of Syngonium podophyllum, which
when thrown outdoors has become a really unpleasant and invasive weed in
many parts of Florida. When allowed to climb the leaf becomes
pedatisect.

I've got a request from a lady who has been sending me emails to help find
an ID for this plant. Looks like a Syngonium to me and Steve Marak but
thought I'd try to give her a better ID than that if possible. This is her
description:



"The leaf is thin and the white part seams to dry out and turn brown. The
normal leaf size is 4-6 inches, but as it grows it seems to get larger. It
will grow just like the pothos, along the ground or climbing. The leaves
mainly stay the same unless I put fertilizer in the pot and then the leaves
will be different. If I give it only watered down fertilizer it stays the
same, half white half green. It doesn't like direct light and the white will
burn. "



Thanks for any help.
