4" Scindapsus Silver Queen/Silver Splash Combo Pot

Scindapsus Silver Queen is a stunning trailing houseplant admired for its heart-shaped leaves adorned with silver-green variegation. Its elegant vines make it an ideal choice for adding a touch of beauty to both hanging baskets and elevated surfaces.

Care Tips:

1. Light: Thrives in moderate to bright, indirect light. Avoid harsh, direct sunlight to prevent leaf burn. It can tolerate lower light conditions, but its variegation may become less prominent.

2. Watering: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Water thoroughly and ensure proper drainage to prevent root rot. Reduce watering frequency during winter.

3. Humidity: Appreciates higher humidity levels, making it ideal for bathrooms or kitchens. Regular misting or using a humidifier can help if your home is dry.

4. Temperature: Keep the plant in a warm environment with temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C). Avoid exposure to cold drafts.

5. Soil: Use a well-draining, all-purpose potting mix. Adding perlite or orchid bark can aid in maintaining good drainage.

6. Fertilization: Feed the plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce or halt fertilization in fall and winter.

7. Pruning: Trim leggy or yellowing vines to encourage bushier growth. You can also propagate cuttings in water to grow new plants.

8. Support: Provide a trellis or moss-covered stake for the vines to climb on if desired.

9. Potting: Repot every 1-2 years in spring, or when the plant becomes root-bound. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage.

10. Pest Control: Regularly inspect for pests like spider mites or mealybugs. If found, isolate the plant and treat the infestation promptly.

Scindapsus Silver Queen is a resilient plant, making it suitable for both novice and experienced plant enthusiasts. Tailor your care routine to your specific indoor conditions, and your Silver Queen will reward you with its captivating foliage and graceful growth.
