I use an old, fluffy make-up powder brush to dust my velvet-leaved plants. Recently found your channel and am very much enjoying your content. Thank you!
I bought one (fearly large/full) scindapsus pictus around three years ago, managed to split it up in three. They grow so fast, so I propagated a lot of the long growing stuff, gave two pots with propagations away to friends and currently having 4 pots filled plus one big vase with propagations going on steady. I love them so much! Propagating them is addictive ❤😅
Claire, your Scindapsus Exotica is just gorgeous! So are the others, the Treubii and the Arguraes but for some reason the Exotica has really grown on me the last few months. I have one too and it has quickly become one of my most fav plants. Thanks for sharing yours n God bless!!🙏
I just came across your site and love how direct and to the point you are! I'm now a subscriber because your the 1st site that doesn't go on and on about nothing, keep up the great content 👍!
The exotica has been one of my absolute favourite plants right from the get go. I always love to see how other people care for theirs!! I also agree with you on the light to growth ratio being very connected!! I have most of my scindapsus is bright indirect light and they grow a lot faster than the ones I have in darker spots (wish I could put them all there but I do have a space issue sadly) Edit: Also on the topic of the non velvet ones being different care than the velvet ones: It makes sense that they are different care since they are a different species than the velvet ones!! The velvety ones are from the pictus species and the other ones are from the treubii species!! I agree on the treubii ones being a lot more difficult and prone to root rot! I lost the majority of my moonlight and all of my dark form to root rot sadly. We'll see how the left over moonlight cuttings will do. I have some hope for them!!
I have one of those and it is still small, about 4 leaves but it is really impressive! The leaves are getting very big and it's growing relatively fast. It didn't do much for a while and now recently it's started to take off!
Thank you so much for this in depth sharing about pothos care tips! ❤ I watch it all, repeatedly, since this is my first time growing this beautiful plant.
I spray all my plants down at least twice a month when they are inside. Including the velvety plants. I don’t have any issues. I believe the key is lots of air circulation.
Scindapsis is such a beautiful plant and it’s easy to propagate. I find my Moonlight is more sensitive to overwatering and it’s a much slower grower than my Satin. Love them both! This video is a perfect care video for these plants. Very well done! Thank you. 👌🪴🥰
One interesting thing about these is that several are shingling plants. For example if an exotica grows up a wall it starts looking like a monstera dubia :) Also seems to always grow twice as fast when it gets to grow up
@@jasminepetal3972I believe it means they grow super flat against the flat surface and the leaves alternate directions. Look up images of the plants mentioned on a plank. It's really cool looking!
me quedo sorprendido al ver tantas pero a la vez tan hermosas plantas y que no son de flor pero el colorido tan sencillo y variedad de forma de sus hojas las hace tan atractivas pero a la vez me sorprende toda esa variedad en tu entorno pequeño lo que es motivante , tus videos me contagian , saludos desde Colombia...I am surprised to see so many but at the same time so beautiful plants and that they are not flowers but the simple color and variety of shape of their leaves makes them so attractive but at the same time I am surprised by all that variety in your small environment what It's motivating, your videos infect me, greetings from Colombia
Im watching this cos ive just repotted a treubii moonlight i grew from an unrooted cutting, potted the propagation back in August and ive just repotted it today as its roots were squished in a tiny pot and it had been looking a bit limp recently. Hoping your tips will guide me as the poor thing only has 2 leaves atm 🤣
This is most informative. Thank you! I do enjoy learning from your clips. Would you mind sharing the type of soil, or composition of soil, you use for your scindapsus and for your Pink Princess (which I saw in another video)? Thank you very much.
Your moonlight is so silvery looking! They all look besutiful....I have a one leaf silver lady.....that will not grow another leaf for 1year now.....I have tried everything! I also had a trubii dark form 1 leaf cutting....never made it....I do not recommend those two for leaf cuttings....I grew my little siver hero from a node stick...bought three and only one made it! I got three leaves on that one :) beautiful plants Claire
I love all Scindapsus. I love their bluey-silver leaves. The Moonlight Trubeii is the only one that give me a bit of grief and that’s the browning tips. I hoping to grow my collection and eventually have one of each.
My leaves are getting smaller over time. I don't know why. Maybe a bit more fertilizer then what it should take? I read somewhere to give it a trellis so the leaves get bigger. Some moonlight type leave pots are a foot and ½ away from a sunny window yet the leaves are getting very small. And my pictus i know doesn't get as big as exotica but keeps getting smaller, too. I need help. 😢
Hello Claire and Yoli is ADORABLE!! Thank you for sharing as I just got a mini Silver Scindapsus that is in soggy soil and it shows a few spots on the leaves so I'll remove those, repot it and follow your tips!!❤️🥰🙏🏼🙏🏼
another great video just ordered my 1st one went for the stain pictus in the end. I was wondering if you could do a video on your Macodes petola - Jewel Orchids care & update video. as I have also ordered as I loved your soo much & but is not much on TH-cam about care especially in the UK thanks much appreciated 🥰❤️
Hello, Ms. JungleHaven! (Do you spell your name Clare or Claire?) I wanted to share with you that pronouncing Scindapsus with the sound of /k/, as you prefer it, is correct. It comes from the Greek /skindapsos/, which means "on a tree" or "up a tree" and refers, mostly, to climbing vines, lichens, and epiphytes.
Hello Claire!! First your hair and skin are looking amazing in this video I don't know what makes this video any different but they look so good, not that they didn't look good before, I just am seeing a really beautiful glow about you. But I do have a question I see you have an essential oil diffuser in your cabinet so can those be used as humidifiers I have one that I don't use for oil anymore and so I was wondering if I could clean it up and use it thank you so much for your videos and all your time and hard work have a wonderful day.
I have one I just purchased from a big box store. It is leggy and the leaves are small a curled. Why and what can I do to make it look healthy like yours? Thanks!
Air circulation. If you have good circulation you don't have to worry (like putside does). It's when the water sits on the leaves that's the issue. They start rotting.
Like your videos a lot, very informative. I keep struggling with the words bright indirect sunlight. I always want to put my plants almost in front of the window , but not as the sun shining directly on their leaves ofcourse. But i see you have plants every where. So if i for example put one near a televison, or a table or a dressoir, further away from the window in my living room where i have a big window, is that still bright indirect sunlight. Because in front of the window with protection you can't place many plants, if you know what i mean? Grtz from Belgium 💖
Thank you so much for your channel Ana videos… they have helped me so much. I just got my first trebuii and I am really struggling. The leaves are all folding in and the plant itself feels kinda soft. I tried repotting it and the roots all look amazing…. My house has been pretty cold the past wk… could the cold (60 degrees) weather cause this?
do you wait for leaf curl to water? I do but I am not sure if thats too little. I bottom water so I drench and almost dry my scindapsus before watering again. I would say like 80 percent of soil is dry. I have the argyraeus and exotica.
Ive just got afew ‘silver’ scindapsus cuttings, if you want it to grow fast can you remove the roots that form on the stems to direct its energy to growth?
I have a question. I have a significant number of plants in an area that uses a light instead of sun. When a plant needs a bright indirect light source, how do I do that with artificial light?
I’ve had the worst luck with my silver satin. When I bought it, it was stunning but the roots were so rotten. I cut it way back, repotted, and then tried to propagate, and the majority of it has failed. I’ve got one pitiful vine that is fighting its way back in my grow tent and a few leaves I’m hoping root in soil. 8 months later, still hoping for success.
Have you tried putting it in perlite until it gets decent roots, then making sure the soil mix has a lot of perlite mixed in? I used to have issues with root rot until I started using a lot of perlite.
I bought one of these eventually I checked the root ball and there was something tied around the root system like a piece of tape or band aid. I made slits in it and changed the dirt in it. What is it and should it have been removed completely?
I need help with my plan..I am getting a lots of yellow leaves..I changed the pot and soil and is getting worse..what can I do ?? I have it for 6yr now and I never had any problem until now..thank you
kinda weird question but what is your accent (english is not my first language and im still learning but you are so easy to understand)? also gorgeous plants and super helpful advices!
I pronounce scindapsus the same way 😉 I struggled(and eventually killed)my treubeii and my silvery anne has survided for past year but seems to be always curling its leaves 😔 I live in a dry climate
Hi joanna, I don't have a treubeii, and wonder if I'll give it a go. I was terrified of the price, I won't pay a lot for a plant just because it's the 'in' variety. I can wait! i see people cutting theirs up in my local plant group a LOT and asking a lot for each cutting. I like to get cuttings and watch them grow.
Your videos would be much better if you gave information about the plants - such as NAME and CULTIVAR! Many veiwers have learned about basic care long ago. In this video, you are showing what I believe is a hybrid and speaking about it as though it is the species. Am I wrong about that?
I use an old, fluffy make-up powder brush to dust my velvet-leaved plants. Recently found your channel and am very much enjoying your content. Thank you!
I love ur accent. It makes learning about plants more sophisticated 💚🪴🌿😄🌱
True, so articulate.

I have my scindapsus and moonlight in leca, never had a problem with root rot.. Will be putting my scindapsus up on a moss pole!
OMG Scindapsis, one of my all time favourites!
Thanks for this video!! I think I know the reason why my scindapus is declining!! Will take these factors in!!

I have been thinking of buying this for a few days. I guess this is a sign 😃
they are lovely and easy to care
i clean my velvet leave with milk and water milk help the leave with calcium plus they looove it plus help w pest and fungus infection

May I ask what you spray them with?
@@rdred8693 usually just water. Sometimes I’ll use a very diluted fertilizer and spray them with that. But not often.
@@mechelleburk5680 Thank you.

Perfect timing. I just bought a scindapsus exotica from the supermarket. Hopefully it’ll flourish!

This is exactly what I needed!! I was just thinking yesterday about how to make my exotica happier!
I love all Scindapsus. I love their bluey-silver leaves. The Moonlight Trubeii is the only one that give me a bit of grief and that’s the browning tips. I hoping to grow my collection and eventually have one of each.
I really love my scindapsis!
Love your channel! I have about 5 different types of these and the Exotica is really taking off lately. The leaves are getting big and I'm so happy.
My leaves are getting smaller over time. I don't know why. Maybe a bit more fertilizer then what it should take? I read somewhere to give it a trellis so the leaves get bigger.

Pro tip - don't let your dog tear apart the pot it's in and then trample all over it while playing with the pot. That tends to put it back a bit
So informative! I just got a moonlight and great to know that it's a bit different in care than the others!! Lol
Loved this video! Thank u
another great video just ordered my 1st one went for the stain pictus in the end.

I just bought a scindapsus plant and have been misting it. Thank God you just warned me
Very very nice video , I have one and love it , thanks😊

GREAT info! Thanks!
I have one I just purchased from a big box store. It is leggy and the leaves are small a curled. Why and what can I do to make it look healthy like yours? Thanks!
Do we need to also cover the lid of the prop box if we stay in a hot/humid tropical country?
One would have to wonder how Scindapsus survives in the jungle where its leaves get rained on regularly.
Air circulation. If you have good circulation you don't have to worry (like putside does). It's when the water sits on the leaves that's the issue. They start rotting.

What is the hanging plant behind your head? It’s awesome
Thank you so much for your channel Ana videos… they have helped me so much. I just got my first trebuii and I am really struggling. The leaves are all folding in and the plant itself feels kinda soft. I tried repotting it and the roots all look amazing…. My house has been pretty cold the past wk… could the cold (60 degrees) weather cause this?
She hit the key word. MONITOR!
Excellent vid.
how do you make the pole stand in a small pot erect like that?
Wow your plants are gorgeousx thanksx I have one of these which I will probably kill but hopefully notxo
do you wait for leaf curl to water? I do but I am not sure if thats too little. I bottom water so I drench and almost dry my scindapsus before watering again. I would say like 80 percent of soil is dry. I have the argyraeus and exotica.
I don’t know if this is a silly question but do they prefer a tight pot or a bigger one to grow into? I feel like mine got rot when I sized up the pot
Ive just got afew ‘silver’ scindapsus cuttings, if you want it to grow fast can you remove the roots that form on the stems to direct its energy to growth?

Hi. Love your channel! But about spaghnum moss: Every time i try to propagate with it, it starts to mold. Idk what im doing wrong😩
I need help with my plan..I am getting a lots of yellow leaves..I changed the pot and soil and is getting worse..what can I do ?? I have it for 6yr now and I never had any problem until now..thank you
beautiful
Have you ever used silica?
Mine is loosing it's spots on the side of the plant closet to the window. Do you maybe know why?
Best soil for them?
kinda weird question but what is your accent (english is not my first language and im still learning but you are so easy to understand)? also gorgeous plants and super helpful advices!
I believe she is from the UK. Most likely British. :)
Mine like to grow up the brick walls. One’s starting to shingle. 💚

What causes the yellowing of the leaves on the ends ,the main part of the plant is fine, but ends leaves yellowing ?
HELP ME PLEASE, soil mix for my SUFFERERING SUS?
What is the difference between monstera dubia and scindapsus ?
one is a monstera and the other is pothos they both have different care needs
isn't that moonlight a philidendron?? I love blue-green (moonlight) colored plants, but philidendron doesn't like it at my house 😢
Why are my leaves got so small over time? 😢
Mine has root rot😔😔😔😔😔
💚💚💚
I think it could be a good idea to share at least some basic information about the soil requirements. pH, composition etc. Thanks.
My scindapsus is NOT GROWING 😭 Idk what else I can do for her. She doesn’t like it in my house
Are these guys not a type of Pothos? I have a Satin Pothos but now I’m not sure if it is🤣💚

I came here for basic care.
Its makes sense that it should be pronounced sindapsis but my brain refuses to accept it
