Scindapsus Pictus ‘Exotica’ is distinguished from other Scindapsis by it's larger, heart shaped leaves with a silvery, reflective variegation that can sometimes cover an entire leaf! Some common names for this plant include Silver Philodendron or Silver Pothos even though Scindapsus is considered it’s own classification. While a slower growing variety of Scindapsus, in time it's vines grow quite long, making this plant a great choice for hanging planters, a totem pole, or hanging off a shelf/credenza as well as propagating to share with friends! We’ve also observed this plant has the unique ability to grow leaves that are the same size whether it’s left to hang or trained to climb, giving you more freedom in placement. This is one of Ed’s personal favorites due to it’s easy, trailing growth and unique velvety texture!

Ed's Care Guide

- Water: Water thoroughly and allow the top 1-2in of soil dry out between watering. The plant will let you know it's thirsty when the foliage begins to droop. Water less frequently in winter.
- Humidity: Appreciates higher levels of humidity
- Temperature: 60-85F. Avoid cold drafts.
- Pruning: Prune as needed to remove brown or dead leaves.
