Scindapsus Exotica – The Bold and Beautiful Variegated Vine

The Scindapsus Exotica is a popular houseplant known for its large, striking silver-spotted leaves. Its high contrast variegation makes it a standout in any indoor plant collection.

Key Features That Set It Apart

• Features broad, elongated leaves with silver-splashed variegation
• Has a thicker, leathery texture, making it more resilient than other varieties
• Vines can grow long and trailing, making it ideal for hanging baskets or climbing structures

Growing Conditions for Maximum Vibrancy

• Prefers bright, indirect light for strong variegation and healthy growth
• Requires well-draining, nutrient-rich soil, preventing root rot
• Benefits from moderate humidity (50-70%), keeping leaves lush and firm

Caring for Aerial Roots in Larger Vines

• Attach aerial roots to a moss pole or wooden trellis for structural support
• If roots grow excessively, they can be trimmed without harming the plant
• Misting helps prevent drying of roots, especially in drier environments

Common Pests and Issues to Monitor

• Mealybugs and spider mites – Keep leaves clean and use organic insecticides as needed
• Brown leaf tips – Use filtered water to avoid fluoride or salt buildup
• Slow growth in cooler temperatures – Keep in warm (65-80°F) conditions for steady development
