The Scindapsus Exotica is the perfect choice for anyone looking for a trailing houseplant with bold silver foliage. Featuring oversized, heart-shaped leaves generously splashed with shimmering silver, this tropical beauty instantly elevates bookshelves, hanging baskets, plant stands, and moss poles with its luxurious appearance. Often mistaken for a Pothos, Scindapsus Exotica is actually a different genus altogether. Compared to the standard Satin Pothos, the Exotica variety produces significantly larger leaves with heavier silver variegation, giving it a brighter, more dramatic look that's highly sought after by collectors and interior designers alike. Native to the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia, Scindapsus naturally climbs towering trees using aerial roots while growing beneath a dense canopy of filtered sunlight. When given a moss pole, Exotica rewards growers with noticeably larger leaves, while allowing it to trail creates long cascading vines that soften shelves and brighten indoor spaces. One little-known fact about Scindapsus Exotica is that the silvery patches on its leaves aren't true variegation. Instead, they're created by microscopic air pockets within the leaf tissue that reflect light, producing the satin-like shimmer that gives the plant its signature appearance. It's one of nature's most beautiful optical illusions. Whether you're decorating a modern apartment, creating a lush office, or expanding your rare plant collection, Scindapsus Exotica offers timeless elegance with surprisingly easy care. Plant Care Instructions and Recommendations • Light: Medium to bright indirect light. Brighter light encourages the best silver coloration.
