4" Scindapsus argyraeus
Care
Bright indirect light
Allow soil to dry almost completely
Scindapsus argyraeus is a sport of the popular Scindapsus pictus. Scindapsus argyraeus has green leaves with small patches of mottled silver variegation on them.
Scindapsus argyraeus enjoys being in a hanging basket but if you allow it to climb it will shine and outperform other plants in the room! We recommend one of our coco poles for optimum growth.
Caring for your Scindapsus argyraeus is simple. Provide your plant with a well draining soil rich in organic matter. Allow it to mostly dry out between watering, making sure it does not sit in excess water. If your Scindapsus argyraeus leaves begin to curl, this is a sign that it's thirsty -- so give it a drink. Place your plant in a brightly lit room where it receives bright indirect light.

Customer Reviews
This is the best purchase of this species I have ever made . I have purchased this plant twice before from other vendors and received rootless poorly shipped specimens. This experience with Canopy was excellent. Well grown generous well rooted plant showed up on my doorstep. It has been acclimating well and for once I believe I will have a good chance of enjoying a full pot of this scindapsus. Another successful purchase!
The plant came in so full and bushy! It also came incredibly healthy and just beautiful. This is my first time owning a Scindapsus and it is thriving. It did not skip a beat due to the shipping (which was so fast, my plants were home in three days, amazing!). I will absolutely buy again from here (building my wishlist as I write).
The plant arrived in great condition. It’s super healthy and it already needs a bigger pot.
I was surprised by how lush it was! Lots of trailing leaves and new growth! Only a single dying leaf and needed water upon arrival, but that's normal during this summer heat! Safely packaged. I love it, thank you so much!
This plant arrived in perfect condition and is thriving.
