Scindapsus is quickly becoming one of my favorite genera. I'd love to see a video of you trying to get it to shingle. My two are still pretty small but it looks like a fun projects for sure!

.. I've got my Exotica in a clay pot (again) .. I've tried back in spring to move him to a plastic nursing pot when he grew out of his pot but his reaction was not only to look weird, but also to show a weird behavior.. 2 month ago I finally took him out of the pot to see what he was on about, and dear mee.. I had lost half of him to root rot.. I had only watered him when completely dry, as usual, but this was his way of telling mee how he hated the nursing pot.. He got cleaned up and treated with new soil and a clay pot instead.. He even got to sit a wee little shaded for recovering, but he really seems to be so fine now since he started to grow bigger leaves, and even started trailing.. I don't dare to move him.. .. I moved my Micans last year to Leca, because of a massive gnats infection.. I never had gnats before so that was a lot of work.. She responded really good, and this year I wanted to move her back into her nursing pot with soil.. Big mistake.. She curled up and decided to slowly die, so a few months back I had to move her back into Leca, and now she's doing fine, again.. Same thing with my Neon Philodendron, only she was never going back to soil but is still in her Leca.. I don't need her to go crazy too.. Lesson learned: our plants may not be able to speak out loud, but they certainly know how to make it clear of what they like and what they don't like.. .. I give all my plants a flush clean once every 3 month or so, even though I only use organic fertilizers.. It takes a few days because I boil my water and run it through a paper coffee filter.. It cleans the water apparently so well that even my cats prefer to drink that instead of their own (their own is a h2o bowl).. .. I am so thankful for your time spend making all these videos.. So thank you so very much..

This is one of my favorite plants. I started off with one, I now have six well established plants and I have widely shared with friends and family. Easy to propagate, use perlite in a prop box. I spray down my Scindapsus pictus to get rid of dust on the leaves and I have not experienced any problems. I also have not had any pests so far. I love that they let me know when they need water. One of my easiest care plants.

Hi Amanda love your channel. Just wanted to say that from my experience scindapsus pictus leaves do not like water. I realized this after i watered the first few times and the water absorbs through the leaves as opposed to other plants that the leaves repel the water. So you get this effect that looks kind of like cooked spinach. Very unpleasant. I make sure when i water or put my plant out in the rain to wipe each leaf dry thoroughly with a dry cloth. It's time consuming but if you don't do it you risk losing some leaves unnecessarily.

For me, I just plant cuttings directly back into the pot and do nothing else special, and they root within 1-2 weeks. My scindapsus pictus argyraeus had weird brown spots that kind of looked like scale. I cut off all the leaves with that and planted any clean cuttings back into the same pot, and within a month or so I had at least one new growth on each cutting, and now I have 5-7 new leaves

😱I never realized that they like to shingle! Thank you so much for this video! I chopped up my Exotica. Small leaves and slow growing 😠. I put them in a cup with water and perlite and into a prop box with ambient grow light. They are almost ready to plant and I was going to try a moss pole but, now I will use a cedar plank 🤞🙏. I had it in a north facing windowbut,wait! The window gets sunlight reflecting from the white house nextdoor. My Manjula, Pearl she Jade are growing like weeds, small internodes and beautiful leaves,they are just trailing. My variegated and just regular green Philodendron Hederaceum are both growing like weeds too, right up the window. Hopefully Scindapsis on a plank will do well starting over. Thank you again!🤩😍🤩

Happy to see this video , thanks so much. I love scindapsus and yes they have many varieties(here also available in the Philippines). However I encounter the same problems you mentioned specifically the long runners , smaller leaves on the runners. Now I know why. Hope to grow them better this time(whatever is left) before I acquire new ones.

I love scindapsus! The camera really does not do this gorgeous plant justice. It really is so beautiful with its subtle shimmering of the entire leaf, not just the silvery parts of it. I just have an argyraeus now and she is quite young but so damn cute! Thanks for a wonderful video.

Hi Drea. My experience with prop has been with stratum after one time in water. The stratum is awesome in my opinion even if it takes some time to root but usually doesn’t. The leaves never curl and stay perfectly formed. That has also been my experience with rooting maranta in stratum as well

I've had great luck with the Exotica - I can't grow the other pictus or trubii varieties for some reason but the Exotica has been fabulous. I propagate in moss or perlite and have had great luck I didn't notice that it was slow. I don't have runners for some reason maybe it's because I keep them in pretty high light but I want to try it on a plank and see how it grows.

All my scindapsus plants have rooted awesome in perlite. I just plant the cuttings into a 3" pot of perlite, place in a bright spot and water from the top. I keep an inch of water at the bottom and keep the perlite moist. It roots so much quicker, have roots within 3 to 4 weeks and they transfer to soil with no problems. ❤

You can also add a willow cut to the water. That helps root anything.

Aloha Plant Life - As it turns out, I wandered into my local nursery yesterday to get a terra cotta pot for a Peperomia, and they had a Scindapsus - it was labeled as a Satin Pothos, so I'm not sure what variety it is. I had to buy it, I just had to! LOL He was dry as a bone, a lot of leaves were curled, and he was severely wilted. I brought him home, watered him thoroughly, and he is doing great! I will give him a month to acclimate to my place, and repot him in your epiphyte soil. He is gorgeous! I would love to see a video on giving your Scindapsus the opportunity to shingle. I'm planning on doing that with mine if I can figure out how.

Low light SHOULD MEAN "the highest light available indoors" or "shaded area without direct sun outside" Bright Indirect light should mean "requires a lamp or grow light 10-14 hours a day indoors" or "2-3 hours of morning sun outdoors" I wanna get a job writing plant sticks 😂

My truebii has made me not want any scindapsis. There is a slightly roughed up but otherwise healthy pictus of some sort at the grocery store. I've considered buying it a few times but then I remember my truebii. Also, I don't really have room for hanging plants, or I should say, I have plenty of room but not enough light to hang or sit them where the TOP gets light. I've got a ton of plants on every surface 😬 including on top of my dogs crate. He doesn't bug any of them, but I know if he's in his crate and a pothos or similar plant brushes at him that he will bite it and I don't want to encourage him to find plants annoying. I had no idea these guys are shinglers which might make a difference for me in the future but I'm kinda at that point where I have so many plants it feels cluttered AND it is cluttered BC I have to move things to use things, like the tv in my livingroom requires at least two plants to be moved so I can watch 🤣 (I use the bedroom tv mostly).

Curly leaf question My alocasia silver dragon head a leaf stop unfurling and it hardened off. I've been debating cutting it but then thinking "well it's still photosynthesizing" it's not browning or anything so would you leave it to fuel the plant? (Cause of stunted unfurl was conditions changed as it was a new leaf when I bought it). Thanks Drea!
