Scindapsus Exotica, also known as Silver Pothos or Satin Pothos, is a beautiful and easy-to-care-for plant that is perfect for beginners or seasoned plant lovers.
Light Requirements
Scindapsus Exotica prefers bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves. If the plant is not receiving enough light, the leaves will start to turn yellow and drop off.
Watering
Water your Scindapsus Exotica when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Be sure not to overwater, as this can lead to root rot. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings.
Humidity
Scindapsus Exotica prefers moderate to high humidity levels. To increase humidity, you can place a tray of water near the plant or use a humidifier.
Temperature
Scindapsus Exotica prefers temperatures between 60-85°F (15-29°C). Avoid placing the plant near cold drafts or air conditioning vents.
Fertilizer
During the growing season (spring and summer), fertilize your Scindapsus Exotica once a month with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer. Do not fertilize during the winter months.
Propagation
Scindapsus Exotica can be propagated through stem cuttings. Take a 4-6 inch cutting from the tip of a healthy stem, remove the lower leaves, and place the cutting in water or soil. Keep the soil moist and the cutting in bright, indirect light until roots have formed.
Potting
Repot your Scindapsus Exotica every 1-2 years, or when the plant has outgrown its pot. Use a well-draining potting mix and a pot with drainage holes to prevent overwatering.
With the proper care, your Scindapsus Exotica will thrive and bring beauty to your home or office.
