Scindapsus Silver Satin | 6” Pot
A Shimmering Southern Climber Full of Grace & Charm
Here at Wrights Market, nestled in our 1938 cottage where stories are shared over sweet tea and plants are treated like family, we believe in filling our homes with beauty that grows quietly and steadily—just like love. The Scindapsus Silver Satin is one of those special plants. With velvety, heart-shaped leaves brushed in silvery splashes, it catches the light like dew on morning magnolia leaves.
Also known as Scindapsus pictus or Silver Philodendron (though it’s in its own unique family), this lovely trailing plant hails from the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia. There, it grows as a climber in the understory—thriving in dappled light and humid air. In your home, it brings that same serene, easy elegance, perfect for a sunny kitchen window, cozy bookshelf, or hanging basket in a front porch sunroom.
While rare, mature plants may produce small, pale green blooms—but it’s the leaves that truly shine, symbolizing tranquility, inner peace, and grace in the everyday.
Care Instructions:
-
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light; too much direct sun may scorch its delicate leaves
-
Water: Let the top 1–2 inches of soil dry before watering; loves consistency but never sogginess
-
Humidity: Appreciates moderate to high humidity—perfect for kitchens or bathrooms
-
Soil: A well-draining potting mix with a bit of perlite or orchid bark works best
-
Growth Habit: Naturally trailing or climbing—train on a trellis or let it cascade from a shelf
-
Toxicity: Mildly toxic if ingested—keep out of reach of pets and small children
Perfect Plant Companions:
-
Philodendron Micans – pairs beautifully with its soft texture and rich tones
-
Pothos ‘N’Joy’ or ‘Marble Queen’ – adds brightness and contrast to any arrangement
-
Calathea Orbifolia – rounds out the display with elegant, patterned foliage
-
String of Pearls – adds playfulness and movement to a shared planter or shelf
Whether it’s trailing from a vintage macramé hanger or sitting pretty in a sunlit corner, the Scindapsus Silver Satin brings a gentle shimmer and slow, steady growth—just like the best things in life. From our family at Wrights Market to yours, may it remind you that beauty often blooms in the quietest moments.
