Abstract
A vegetative mutant of Syngonium podophyllum "White Butterfly" which is of compact growth, more round leaves which are two to three times the size of the parent, petioles two to three times as large, thicker light green leaves, the leaves being most distinctly different as to color as a sort of gray, frosty green and interesting patterns of variegation where such is present.
Show the legal claimThe single numbered claim as granted — the legal text that defines what this patent covers.
I claim: 1. A new and distinct variety of Syngonium plant, substantially as herein shown and described, characterized particularly as to novelty by the unique combination of distinctive pale green somewhat grayish color of its leaves, more compact growth habit, more round, nearly twice as long leaves and petioles than "White Butterfly" (unpatented), the leaves also being thicker and lighter green, less and different variegation where appearing, and lack of susceptibility to any known disease.
