Scindapsus Snake 7cm

🌿 Scindapsus ‘Snake’ Care Guide

Scindapsus Snake is all about sleek jungle style — beautifully patterned foliage with a striking, almost reptile-like appearance that gives this unusual climber its distinctive character. Easy-going, eye-catching, and full of personality, it's a brilliant choice for trailing displays or climbing up a moss pole. 🌿✨

☀️ Light

• Thrives in bright, indirect light
• Bright filtered light helps maintain strong foliage patterning
• Avoid harsh direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves
• Medium light is tolerated, but growth may slow

💧 Water

• Allow the top half of the substrate to dry between waterings
• Water thoroughly, then let excess drain away
• Use a chunky, airy aroid mix with excellent drainage
• Avoid leaving the roots sitting in wet substrate

🌫️ Humidity

• Prefers moderate to high humidity (50–70%)
• Adapts well to average household conditions
• Higher humidity encourages larger foliage and smoother unfurling
• Good airflow helps maintain healthy growth

🍽️ Feeding

• Feed every 4–6 weeks during active growth
• Use a balanced liquid fertiliser at half strength
• Reduce feeding during autumn and winter when growth slows

🌱 Quick Tips

• Provide a moss pole or plank to encourage larger, more mature foliage
• Can also be grown trailing from a shelf or hanging planter
• Easy to propagate from stem cuttings with a healthy node
• Wipe leaves occasionally to keep their distinctive pattern looking its best
