Scindapsus Silver Lady

Scindapsus 'Silver Lady' is an exquisite trailing aroid prized for its velvety, heart-shaped leaves adorned with a luminous silver overlay that shimmers with every shift of light. A close relative of the beloved Scindapsus pictus family, Silver Lady presents a more refined and uniform silver coverage — less mottled, more polished — giving it an almost lacquered, jewel-like quality. Elegant, low-maintenance, and endlessly captivating, it is the ideal statement trailer for collectors who appreciate quiet, sophisticated beauty.

Care Guide

• Light: Thrives in bright to medium indirect light. The silver sheen is most pronounced in good light; avoid prolonged low light, which dulls the metallic effect. Keep out of direct sun.
• Water: Allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry between waterings. Scindapsus are more drought-tolerant than true pothos — err on the drier side to avoid root rot.
• Humidity: Prefers 50–70% humidity for optimal leaf texture and sheen. A humidifier or pebble tray is beneficial in drier environments.
• Temperature: Prefers 65–85°F (18–29°C). Sensitive to cold drafts and temperatures below 55°F.
• Soil: Well-draining aroid mix with perlite and orchid bark for excellent aeration and drainage.
• Fertilizer: Feed monthly during the growing season with a balanced liquid fertilizer at half strength. Avoid over-fertilizing.
• Toxicity: Toxic to pets and humans if ingested.
