Photographs are representative of the species and not always of the specific plant shipped. Normal variations in size, pruning and leaf structure may occur.

Sun: Indirect

Position your Silver Satin Pothos - Pictus Exotica away from direct sunlight exposure, as intense sunlight can be too harsh for them. Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain is suitable, and since most homes primarily receive indirect sunlight, this plant thrives in such conditions. Optimal placement involves avoiding direct sunlight for most of the day while ensuring the plant receives bright, indirect light for healthy growth.

Light: Medium - Low

Pothos Silver Satin flourishes in medium to bright light conditions, yet it also displays resilience in low-light environments. Optimal placement would be in a spot with medium-light exposure, such as the center of a room with a standard-sized window. While they are versatile in placement within a room, it's essential to note that their growth is influenced by the amount of light they receive.

Water: When mostly dry

Silver Satin Pothos thrives when its soil is allowed to dry out somewhat before the next watering. In most cases, this occurs approximately every two weeks in a typical home setting. However, the frequency may vary based on seasonal changes, your specific indoor environment, and lighting conditions. To ensure optimal health, it's generally best to err on the side of underwatering and to water when signs of dehydration appear, such as drooping or limp leaves. During warmer months, more frequent watering may be necessary to accommodate increased growth and evaporation rates.

Humidity: Any

Silver Satin thrives in typical home humidity levels and exhibits resilience to various conditions, making it an ideal choice for indoor environments.

Pet Friendly: Caution

Scindapsus Pictus Exotica possesses moderate toxicity and may induce adverse reactions if ingested. Therefore, it's advisable to prevent your pets from consuming it, as is the general recommendation for all plants. The extent of the reaction varies depending on the quantity consumed. If your pet typically avoids eating plants, Scindapsus Pictus Exotica can still be a suitable addition to your home.

Pro Tip

Caring for Scindapsus Pictus Exotica is a breeze, and the rewards are simply stunning with its large, silvery leaves. Avoid overwatering this plant, as it prefers dry soil over being excessively wet for extended periods. For added humidity, consider misting your plant daily; it'll thrive in the increased moisture. Your Scindapsus Pictus Exotica will surely appreciate the extra care!

Your Complete Guide to Pot Sizes: What Size Should You Choose?

When selecting a pot for your plant, it's important to find the right size. But with all the different options out there, how do you know which one is best? We're here to help!

MyGreenscape's pot sizes chart is a great resource for finding your perfect fit. Our easy-to-read chart takes out all the guesswork and helps you quickly choose the right size for your plant.

Smaller pots are best for seedlings or small plants just starting out. These tend to be shallow but wide, allowing enough room for the roots of the young plant but not too much where they get overcrowded. Medium-sized pots are ideal when your plant has grown from its infancy and is ready for more space. These are deeper and wider than small pots, so that it can accommodate larger root systems - making sure your plant gets enough nourishment while still giving it breathing room. Large pots are top choice if you have an established plant in need of lots of space - think trees and large shrubs! The spacious depth and width allow plenty of room for deep root systems without struggling for air or light.

No matter what size you choose, MyGreenscape has got you covered, with our pot sizes chart guaranteeing you find the perfect fit every time!
