Scindapsus

Discover Scindapsus plants in the UK from JungleBotanics, including unusual collector forms selected for silver patterning, variegation and distinctive foliage.

Collector Scindapsus

Scindapsus are climbing aroids valued for textured, patterned and often silver-marked foliage. As plants mature on suitable support, leaf size, shape and surface pattern can change substantially.

Growing Scindapsus

Bright indirect light, warm conditions and an open root environment suit many Scindapsus. Water according to the condition of the substrate rather than the day of the week, allowing the root zone to retain useful moisture while maintaining air space. Our rooting-substrate guide explains why moisture and oxygen need to be balanced.

Scindapsus propagation

Scindapsus are commonly propagated from stem sections containing a viable node. During rooting, excessive water around oxygen-starved stem tissue can increase the risk of deterioration, so substrate structure and moisture balance matter. Read our guide to propagating variegated aroids and why aroid cuttings rot.

Variegated Scindapsus

Where a plant has stable or variable pale patterning, future leaves can differ from the foliage currently visible. Learn more about the underlying biology in our guide to how plant variegation works.
