Care Guide

How to take care of Scindapsus Treubii Dark Form

Sun: Indirect

Scindapsus Treubii Dark Form should not be in a position to see the sun directly, although early morning or late evening sun is fine. Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain is best and most homes are comprised primarily of indirect sunlight. The best spot for them is where they do not see the sun during the majority of the day but still get bright, indirect light.

Light: Medium - Bright

Scindapsus Treubii Dark Form will thrive in bright light, but also can tolerate medium light. A good medium-light place in your home would be in the middle of a room that has a regular size window. They can be placed anywhere between the middle of the room and the window. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.

Water: When half dry

Scindapsus Treubii Dark Form needs to be watered when the top half of the soil is dry to the touch. That usually takes about 1 week in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions, but it's always safer to underwater or give the soil a check before you water again. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.

Humidity: Medium

Scindapsus Treubii Dark Form will do well in average humidity environments but will appreciate a little bit of humidity if provided, give them a mist daily or get a humidifier.

Pet Caution

Scindapsus Treubii Dark Form is moderately toxic and can cause some adverse reactions when ingested so it is best to not let your pets eat it, which we advise for all plants in general. The severity of the reaction will depend on how much of the plant is ingested but, if you know your pet typically does not eat your plants, this plant will be suitable for your home.

Plant Story

Introducing the Scindapsus Treubii 'Dark Form', a rare and sophisticated houseplant that not only brings an element of mysterious beauty to your indoor space but also symbolizes the depth of nature's diversity and the allure of the unexplored.

The Scindapsus Treubii 'Dark Form', part of the larger Scindapsus family, is celebrated for its stunning, almost black foliage.

This variety is particularly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts for its dramatic appearance and the elegant contrast it provides against lighter, more traditional houseplants.

Caring for the Scindapsus Treubii 'Dark Form' involves providing it with bright, indirect light to maintain the vibrancy of its dark foliage.
