Syngonanthus chrysanthus ‘Mikado’
Syngonanthus chrysanthus ‘Mikado’ is a distinctive and architectural foliage plant with fine, grass-like leaves forming a neat basal rosette. Slender stems rise above the foliage, topped with small, spherical golden-yellow flower heads, giving the plant a striking, sculptural look.
Often compared to ornamental grasses or Eriocaulon, this unusual houseplant is ideal for bright indoor spaces where its clean lines and upright form can be appreciated. Best suited to warm rooms with steady moisture and good light, it makes a refined statement for contemporary interiors and plant displays.
- Other names: Mikado Grass
- Useful to know: Non-toxic - safe for pets and children
- Eventual height: 30–50cm including flower stems
- Origins: South America
