Scindapsus sp. Kalimantan care:
This Scindapsus indoor plant loves higher than average humidity to mimic its natural habitat. Allow your plant to dry out about halfway between watering, taking care to not allow it to sit in excess water. Provide your Scindapsus plant with plenty of bright indirect light.
Additional information:
Scindapsus are native to tropical areas in Southeast Asia.
While easily confused with and sometimes referred to as Pothos, they are in fact their own genus!
Scindapsus has quickly began gaining popularity as an easy to care for houseplant with unique colorful foliage.
The most common Scindapsus species, pictus, has many different variations -- all extremely popular and collectable. Their foliage comes in an assortment of colors but generally you'll find them with lots of silver and green variegation.
Generally easy to care for, Scindapsus will tell you when they're thirsty! Their leaves will curl as a signal that they need to be watered.
Scindapsus are commonly used in hanging baskets, but they also love to climb! We recommend a coco pole for these plants so they maintain nice sized foliage.
Customer Reviews
Leaves are so beautiful in person. So much texture and stunning contrast between the dark green and silver. A couple new leaves did not survive the packaging and traveling, but overall has been easy similar care to other Scindapsus and doing well.
Thank you for the thoughtful review! We're so glad you're enjoying the beautiful texture and contrast — and it's great to hear it's settling in well overall. Sorry to hear about the few lost leaves, but it sounds like it's bouncing back nicely! 😊
I was disappointed in the quality of the plants I received for the price. The one pot only had 2 stems and the second pot had 3 but the one stem ended up having zero roots. There is leaf damage that is not due to shipping and two of the strands came broken and had been broken for some time. I can at least try propagating all the bare spots but I expected much better quality. The top part of the plant is really pretty I was just hoping for a full plant based on the photos I've seen online for other scindapsus varieties. I did speak with Canopy and they did provide a credit so I have no complaints on their customer service. I would still order from them again, the other plants I received I was happy with.
