How to Grow BUSHY/FULL Pot Of Scindapsus (OR Pothos, Epipremnum, And Trailing Philodendrons)
ฝัง

- While many of you have seen full pots of scindapsus on sale before, in Indonesia it is actually unheard of. They are sold usually as a single strand with only 3-5 leaves. You may also have received a cutting of it from a friend, and is wondering how to achieve a full bushy pot… Well, this episode provides a tutorial of how to chop and prop from scindapsus (or any trailing philodendron/pothos, its all the same you guys) to achieve a full pot. I use many techniques so you can see which one might suit you best in your environment and care habits… I provide plenty of updates at the end of the video because I know many of you live for it… The scindapsus species used in this episode is the Scindapsus silver lady, tricolor, and silvery anne.

the first video that I saw of you was the one that you are making a wall on your parents house full of plants. the minute that you show your scindapsus i felt in love. that was exactly the moment that my plant journey begaing! thank you so much!!
Whoaaa cool! That was probably 2 years ago. How time flies
I live in Canada 🇨🇦 and was wanting an exotica for the longest time and couldn’t find one that was more than a couple of leaves and then last week I stumbled across the most beautiful full plant with large leaves in my local Co-op grocery store! I almost fainted on the spot! I brought that baby home and I’m sooo in love with it!😍 Great videos Sean! I just love seeing how you grow plants in Indonesia. I’m very jealous of your climate! It’s a real challenge here to winter over our poor houseplants. 😰
Thank youuu. There are tweaks/hacks in your climate to make plants happy over winter, and I enjoy watching content on that actually. Maybe grass is always greener on the other side 😅
You are a bundle of plant information. I thank you so much for sharing. I’m a Hugh fan.
Very kind of you to write in ❤️
The Scindapsus Sumatra is gorgeous! I live in the Philippines and the first scindapsus I had was Exotica, the Philippine variety and I am yet to have the Indonesia variety which has more silver! (Fingers crossed)
I feel you Sean! I also
Live propagating but not selling. I end up putting the propagated plants back to the main pot.
This plant is definitely a keeper. Beautiful foliage and easy to manage. Will hang it on the ceiling, mine is on a plant ladder and good to know that walls block light, thanks for the tip!
😀
I am moving mine from my shelf this minute! 😄great tips as always thank you 👍
😀
I just bought one of these today for €4. It’s little, but the leaves are huge. Thanks for the video!
❤️❤️
I love scindapsus and I’m getting so much from your videos. Thank you!
Thank youu 🥰 they have been a joy for me to grow
It's like you're listening to me, I'm trying to bush up my scindapsus too!! Thanks for all the care tips :D
Haha its so much fun. They propagate so easily (albeit it being a bit slow)
@@onlyplants Super slow! My S. treubii Moonlight didn't do anything for 3 months before it finally decided to pop out a new leaf!
You are amazing. So glad I found this channel!! Thank you!
You’re welcome 😀
I have 1 scindapsus pictus…but now I want another. Great video
They are so easy and rewarding. Ultimate stress-free plant.
Same here I like more on propagating than selling. I always watch your video. Thanks. From Philippines
Thank you 😀😀
Great video, thanks for sharing the caring tips. I have killed so many of them and finally realize that I over water them. Just visited San Diego and bought two 6" pot with full leaves for $5 each in a farmer's market and hope with your planting tips, I'll finally keep them alive.
Make a chunky mix, then it will dry out faster, no rot!!! 🌱🤗💚
I feel your propagation excitement! Hope you can eventually find bushier scindapsus plants over there!
Thank youuu. I actually sold many pots of them bushy scindapsus and its always hard to part with them because they are so cute 🥹
I killed this "easy plant" years ago and have avoided them since. Just bought another to give it another go. She has huge leaves....bigger than I have ever seen. I'm hoping to keep her robust and healthy. I think I will this time. Your plants are gorgeous. I'm like you...plants over people lol
Haha thank you. They might like more light and less water than people think.
This happened to me. I tried again and now have beautiful pothos. 3 easy tips👉 Light and more light. Draining planters and only water when the planter feels light. I over cared for my pothos and they died lol Just let them be
My all time favorite plant 🪴!!! Love propagating them and sharing them with friends and family
❤️❤️
You sound like me..an introvert that loves working with plants but not the customers...😵👍🏻😁💖
You nailed it! Haha
My favorite plant, thanks for sharing Shawn. Take care ♥️🌷
❤️❤️
God bless you!!! This is what I really need. That you so sharing Sean… God bless you! You are aaaamaaazziiinnngg ❤️❤️❤️…
😀😀
Yay been waiting for this again !!!!!!
my top 3 fav - loves!
Been expanding muy scindapsus collection - such joy!
Been also propagating 1st in water (100% success!) then into potting mix - sharing w friends who like them too! :)
sliver ann is sooooo easy to get in SG and exotica too - its interesting that its $$ in Indo and not many ppl there like them? while its common in SG for ppl to notice... soooooo hard to find/get satin which I managed to get cuttings last week.
happy to chill/watch this video :)
❤️❤️
Hi Shawn. I'm a big fan of yours when it comes to plants. Infact you're the only one I watch when it comes to plants . I'm into plant collections as well. Hopefully I could meet you once I visit Indonesia as well..thanks for all your amazing videos and intellectual knowledge with plants
Whoaaa thank youu 🥰🥰
Wow beautiful plants
OMG i love that Silver Lady.. I have 2 var of Borneo SP and didnt know its ID yet.
Beautiful plants as usual Sean.
Thank youu
They look so beautiful, I’ll plant some outside, thanks for sharing!!!
Scindapsus plant can be grown in water culture. I had a Silver Satin for 2 years now in a pot filled with water only, and it's climbing onto a moss pole and is doing very well. Not sure why some people say they don't like to be over-watered.
Water roots are different from soil roots. When you transfer water roots into soil roots they can slowly morph to adapt to soil, which need to dry out between watering as these roots are adapted to take in oxygen from the soil, which they need. My video titled “aerial roots” may explain it a bit 😀
My first scindapsus I bought was waterlogged and I poured all the water out, I propagated the leaves all propagations failed and leaves died off. I put it in a corner let it go, there was one leaf left. One little lonely guy survived, I reported in a small pot, I now have 3 leaves and I wait for leaves to curl before I water again. The nursery I bought it from apologized but damage was already done. I lost 98 percent of the plant, I bought a new bushy one and water it sparingly. Some people experience these plants differently, so over watering happens.
I love your videos. Thank you so much for sharing so many tips.
🙏🏽🙏🏽
We have lot of bushy scanpidus here in canada 🇨🇦. Wetstick also can multiply more plants 🌱
Yeahhh in developed nations they are sold in full baskets. But never here
Is he putting both cut ends of each cutting underneath the soil and completely covered by the soil?
Yes he is 😀
Beautiful Scindapsus...
Thank you for sharing...Sean.
Thanks for coming with!
Some scindapsus varigations are so subtle to that I dont personally understand paying so much for something slightly different than a more common one, but from what I've been told, a Silvery Ann is more concentrated on the tips and the more light you give them, the more silver it'll produce. You probably do have a true Silvery Ann, it just wasn't given as much light from who you bought it from
Whoaaa thanks for the share I will try to give mine more light. Its in deep shade now
@@onlyplants yeah! Harli G talks about a few scindapsus varieties if you wanna check her out, I got this from her ☺️
Really beautiful plants
😀😀
Interesting tips. Thanks for sharing.
😀😀
Very beautyfull plant. I love it.
Thank you
I still haven't had the chance to buy the scandapsis tricolor still looking 😕
Plastic an egg carton to use propagation plants what a good idea👍🏼🥰🙏
Wow! Very good tips! Thanks so much! Sean can you do a video on Clay pots? I'm having a lot of trouble with them cracking 😢
Whoaaa Ive never had issues with mine. Did you let your plant get far too root bound?
@@onlyplants it started cracking right away at the top after a few watering when I potted the plant
Sean, I did this in a cupcake container. I used Spaghnum moss. I lost most of them. I will try this method in my cupcake container. 🧁 🧁 🧁I actually had a great chuckle over the earthworm ewww from you. I touch them all the time. If I need some earthworms in another part of my garden I just pick them up. They don't bite !!!
Whoaa but they are so slimy haha. Its as if they peed on themselves 😅
Awesome Sean. Skillful Propogation of Scindapsus Exotica on a Clear Step on Step Process. I Learened a Lot. Thanks Only Plants.

❤️❤️ you’re welcome. Thanks for the dose of warmth from PH.
For silvery Anne, I feed a little chelated iron, wait a month, give more if not dark green again. Once a month max, by leaf color.
Interesting, this made me do some google searching. Thanks for the share!
They do very well in a brightly lit area they do not need a window they just need bright fluorescent light
😀😀
Please give all kinds of scindupsus cutting as a gift. Please 🥺🥺🥺
🥹🥹🥹
ideally for that size of pot, how many cuttings should we put?
thank you! very educational.
I would say 6-8. But you will have to repot in 9-12 months to one size larger.
hi Sean! Great video and content as always! Always learn so much from your videos. I noticed at 24:05 that the new leaves are pale green, compared to the original leaves which are dark green. Any idea why this is so? (I am experiencing this issue now with my Scindapsus)
New leaves always come in lighter but they eventually will normalize
Bold of you to assume that I actually have things like space or light in my room 🤗
Haha. Try to supplement with artificial light. Any lightbulb will do, no need to get those expensive grow lights.
Please do a new house/plant tour ;))
When I move house haha. My rented home this year is so tiny plants are a bit underwhelming looking 😑
@@onlyplants oh I thought you moved out of your dads into your new home didn’t know it was a rental ughhhh moving plants is the worstttt hope you find your forever home n then please touuurrrr lol
Beautiful plans
@OnlyPlants you should "hire" me as yr gardener. I'm retired now & would GLADLY travel 2 absorb some your GREAT WISDOM.
I'd just need room & board😁🌱😁...Would be an apt pupil & u wouldn't have 2 worry about ME over-watering. Only thing, I'm not much of a "people person" either🤫...Would be BLISSFULLY happy singing to yr BEAUTIFUL plants ALL day🌱🎶🌱
Haha thank you 🙈 I already have a gardener and caretaker at home 😀
I always struggle with this plant. Watering is hard to get down for me. I can’t tell if I’m overwatering or underwatering bc the leaves constantly turn yellow but they curl as if thirsty. the soil I use is more chunky so they dry faster. Sounds like I need to fix my soil up
I have the same problem! Curling leaves & then yellowing. I even wondered if it was spider mites or something and would cut off the curling leaves! 😣
I changed the soil to cactus soil, put in a clay terracotta pot, lots of light, and just wait til the leaves start curling to tell me it’s thirsty, so at least the yellowing has stopped.
But yeah, this plant is quite the picky drama queen! Lol!
Rapidly yellowing is sign of overwatering or root rot. Underwatering could sometimes be due to the fact that the roots have rotten or dried off, causing it to not take up water to the leaves. Its best to check the roots when in doubt
@@onlyplants thanks, good to know!
I have a request
Can you please do this type of videos with Fittunia/ nerve plants, Calathea propagation??????
Will be doing Fittonia soon, calathea video is up next this week! 😀
I have what I believe is a silvery anne and it has lost some silvery-ness. It gets pretty bright light currently...Does it need more or less light to help get silver back?
More light for more silver 😀
@@onlyplants maybe I need to give it more time
Hey Sean🌴... I am Loving your channel!
Scindapsus plants are my biggest challenge as I have killed a few of them by over-watering them. I bought two more plants this summer, so I am trying again!🙂
About fungus gnats, I have found that "Ceylon Cinnamon" has gotten rid of mine months ago, and they have not returned. I just sprinkled some on top the soil. Bottom watering also helps to keep fungus gnats at bay. Have you tried Ceylon Cinnamon?
Ive not heard of ceylon cinnamon… how are they different from regular cinnamon? They do have strong anti fungal properties though so in theory it should work.
@@onlyplants Ceylon Cinnamon is the organic (pure version) of regular cinnamon that we normally use in our kitchen. It has a bitter taste, so I don't recommend eating it. LOL.
As you know, even regular cinnamon is good for fungus gnats. Cinnamon is also a good rooting hormone, and it helps to heal roots that have been tussled or pruned during re-potting. So, organic cinnamon is even more effective!
Let us know if you try it and if it's helps you with fungus gnats. Of course, we still need to make sure we do not over-water our plants. Keep well.🌴
@@writegirl2937 Actually Ceylon cinnamon is from Sri Lanka, and is the real cinnamon. The type usually sold in grocery stores is Cinnamomum Cassia, which is also called Chinese cinnamon. The Real Ceylon cinnamon is sweeter, mellow taste, and no chemicals or preservatives. Always buy Organic spices ...
Seandapsus YUS 🤣😂
😛😛😛
Can you please help me with a little information? When propagating scindapsus, can you grow a new growth shoot from a cutting that already had a new shoot grow and was cut?
I bought a cutting that has the main stem then a second stem coming from the only leaf, cut close to the original stem? Will it grow? It is rooted. Do scindapsus have single growths at each node like monsteras do? Thank you!!
Hello that one shoot will only produce one new branch, and cannot push out another
Muito bom
😀😀
Propbox is good in propagation
Do u have variegated scandipus
Yepp I have 2-3 types only
I’ve been searching for this plant in the United States, it seems so hard to find.
I
The scindapsus pictus exotica and silvery anne are quite common in the states, but some varieties are still being grown now I believe
How do I make them grow bigger leaves? I know climbing will help them but I love the look of them trailing.
Good light and nutrient will help a lot 😀
A few days ago I went to my nearest nursery and I saw a this Scindapsus and it has massive leaves and it was labelled as "Mega Scindapsus"
REALLY !!! I'm on the hunt now😂😂😂 what is your zone
The scindapsus pictus exotica can have face-sized leaves! Fertilize well, give it great light, and a bit of time for that to happen.
@@diannenaworensky6698 I'm in Australia, and they have it in Bunnings 6230
@@Pottedplantsandcookingpots That is a little far away for me. Thanks
HELP! My scindapsus has a weird leaf problem
My scindapsus is geting some werid brown spots on the older leafs🤨 They are not like ‘normale‘ brown spots. The color rangers from greyish brown to olive and the pattern seems sort of scaly. The leafs feels normale. The brown spots are not mushy or flaky.
There are no visible pets and it is not a root problem. I water it when the leafs starts to curl up. The plant is in a terractta pot with will draining soli. It receives bright indircet ligth and is producing new growth like nobody’s business.
Have any of you seen this before? Cuz I sure don’t understand it😵💫
Ive not encountered it but its wise to take top cutting to propagate as insurance.
You are so silly. Worms are happy little critters. I'm always moving them to my flower/plant pots when I find them. Aeration. Lol
Lol you are right though
!
that insecticide you cant even buy here because its illegal since 2009 :D is there anything else you could recommend?
Neem oil diluted in soapy water is excellent pesticide (also it has good anti-microbial properties for plants)! Its good for smaller collections, especially indoors plants and plants around pets and children since its safe.
But for my collection of over 1000 plants, neem oil would cost an arm and a leg haha.
💚💚

I have a silver lady and it grows at a snails pace even tho it has a grow light on it. Do you let the soil go dry? My leaves don’t curl in but feel thinner. That’s when I water.
These guys get heavily rained on daily… but they also live in the outdoors with good airflow and excellent (bright shade)light. I would let them dry out completely when indoors, but not to the point of their leaves curling
My Silvery Ann also look like these with less silver. I tried to give more light but she still doesn't give me more silver 😅
Maybe more light… and more time too. They may take time to adapt.
I am growing my exotica from a single leaf cutting. It is only putting out a new leaf every month. It is receiving bright indirect light and I feed it tiny bit of chicken manure. Not sure why it is growing so slow. 🙄
They start out slow, but becomes fast after 8-10 leaves.
I wish I can live your next door 😔💚
🥹🥹 I wish more plant lovers live in my neighbourhood too!
I am trying to propagate a short piece of scindapsis vine that has three nodes, a leaf and an unfurled leaf on it, in water.
It's been over a month now and while it hasn't died, there's no new growth or roots growing out either!
Are they supposed to take such a long time to grow when you propagate them in water?
I've found an east or west facing window and WARM temps are the two bits that made my pothos cuttings grow roots faster. I didn't change the water as root hormone likely builds up and helps other cuttings Sprout.
Thanks for the share!
I have a video titled “water propagation” there are tips on how to increase success with propagation 😀 in case you havent seen it
Oohh my god.....I love this plant but I can't find it in jamaica
Found some at plant shop on Old Hope Rd. in Kingston. On left side from Matilda's Corner going towards Police Commish. Office
Whoaaa thanks for the share
What do you do with the long runners?
Propagate 😀 single node cuttings even without the leaves can yield high success rate
That's not already a fashion.
u shld fire ur gardener - who doesnt know how to do his job.. grr
I did let him go… but in bis defense there were thousands of plants here and all requiring different care. I killed a lot of plants in the beginning too and this is a something he will have to do in order to master plants 😅
I love how big they are now I have a cutting of the silver lady I am going to propagate it so I can get a bushy 🪴🥰
Yayee
