Plant Bio

Scindapsus sp. Mount Salak

We’ve not been able to discern the origin of this exceptional plant, but we have worked with several Scindapsus experts from around the world to ensure its correct identity. With its thick leaves mottled in multiple shades of silver, it’s sure to be a showstopper in your home.

Like other Scindapsus varieties, Mount Salak can tolerate low light, but doesn’t really thrive there. To thrive, give it a bright spot and grows best within 3 to 4 feet of an unobstructed east- or west-facing window. It prefers average household temperatures and humidity levels (40 percent or more is ideal, but not necessary to be successful with this plant). Offered in our Wick & Grow self-watering system, you can ensure it won’t be over- or underwatered if you periodically refill the reservoir pot as it begins to empty. Keep it away from hot or cold drafts.

Note: This plant may have some natural degree of toxicity and may cause discomfort or illness if ingested. Additionally, exposure to the sap of this plant may cause discomfort to individuals with a sensitivity to it upon contact. Grown for ornamental purposes and not intended for human or animal consumption.
