Care

Scindapsus treubii 'Moonlight' thrives best in bright, indirect light and can be placed in a room with plenty of filtered light or under grow lights. The plant can tolerate lower light conditions but will not be as lush.

Water when the top 3 centimeters of soil feels dry and keep the soil slightly moist. The soil should be moist but not wet and should not remain completely saturated with water for long periods. When repotting, use a porous soil mix such as our Aroid soil.

The plant is very tolerant of different indoor environments and requires little maintenance in terms of humidity. Keep the plant away from cold drafts and elements.

Give the plant a moss stake to climb on to encourage larger leaf growth, or let it hang as a hanging plant. Buy Scindapsus treubii 'moonlight' online!
