This tropical plant is native to regions of Southeast Asia, including countries such as Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. It thrives in the warm and humid climate of these areas, making it a perfect choice for indoor growing.
The Scindapsus has heart-shaped leaves that can vary in color from green to variegated shades of gold and silver. It is a fast-growing vine that is often grown in hanging baskets or trained to climb on trellises. This low-maintenance plant prefers bright indirect light and well-drained soil. With its ability to filter and purify the air by removing toxins such as formaldehyde and benzene, the Scindapsus is a fantastic addition to any indoor space.
To care for Scindapsus, find a spot where it can receive plenty of indirect sunlight, as it prefers a spot in partial shade. Water the plant once a week and make sure the soil is evenly moist, but not soaked. It does best in well-draining soil, such as a mix of regular potting soil and perlite. Fertilize the plant every 2-4 weeks during the growing season, using a balanced houseplant fertilizer diluted to half strength. Enjoy the beautiful Scindapsus delivered in its decorative pot.
