Hey girl, just letting you know, there is actually SIX varieties (that I’m aware of) of Scindapsus Pictus. • Scindapsus Pictus Jade Satin • Scindapsus Pictus Argyraeus • Scindapsus Pictus Exotica • Scindapsus Pictus Silvery Anne • Scindapsus Pictus Silver Lady • Scindapsus Pictus Silver Silver Splash There may even be more! :) Ps love you, you’re videos are great!
Wow that’s a lot!! I had no clue there were that many. I saw that there were different names for the varying amounts of silver on the exotica & Argyraeus. On my exotica, it seems like a regular exotica with some extra silvery leaves in some spots. I didn’t know if people were just naming them differently for the variations of silver or if they were actually different cultivars. But now I know, thank you for informing me! Looks like I will have to be on the hunt for the ones I don’t have 😁
There is also scindapsus treubii that comes in a moonlight (silver) and dark (near black) form. I think Gabriella Plants also has their own version called a silver satin which i think might be the same as the silver splash.
Gabriella Plants has a post somewhere on their IG page that has a diagram showing all of the different scindapsus and what they look like. Many of them look so alike it’s difficult to tell them apart. It’s taken me a lonnnnnnnnng time to be able to tell which is which, and that can even be made more difficult when sellers label accidentally label them incorrectly. They’re all beautiful so it’s really not that important imo. A note about the Scindapsus Truebii: the moonlight is easier to care for than the nearly black, but both are a far, far cry from the ease of a pothos. I’m only putting this out there because I see those two becoming more available in the states. I’ve killed numerous of both, and just gave up on the dark form. I have four moonlight right now and they’re some of the most diva plants I own. There are many sellers labeling the Truebii as a Moonlight Pothos and that can be really misleading for anyone expecting it to be an easy going plant. Great video. You’re adorable!!
I wish I was your friend 😂 literally none of my friends enjoy plants like I do and they look at me all crazy when I get roots on my propagations or finding a new plant.
I know exactly what you mean, same here! I only have my husband to share my love for indoor plants. Luckily for me, he is into succulents and driftwood. He makes these beautiful arrangements using both items.
I joined a plant group on Facebook and now I feel so normal and have plant friends that get excited over everything with me! There are a bunch of local plant groups, I highly suggest finding yours. We do trades and plant swaps when we aren't in quaratine. It's fun!
I can relate, even I want a friend who understands my love and feelings that I have towards my plants or any plants for that matter 😁. They say I’m over crazy about them, and yes I’m I can’t deny it, they are my therapy 💚.
I love love love my exotica! It sits on a shelf in my entrance by the front door. I told hubby if there’s ever a fire be sure to grab my plant on the way out! 😂 I do love my argyraeus too though. I only had a small one but recently found a hanging pot of it at Lowe’s. I had to get it!
yes, jennifer, i too am addicted to scindapsus plants! ...my lounge has turned into a jungle , and i woulnt have it any other way.... Look out for scindapsus silvery ann if you have not got it,,, gets more silvery as it ages. just love them!
Richard,.thanks so much for airing on line!.your amazing scindapsus pictus collection is beuitiful.you have it hands up 🙂🖐.I'm new to this plant journey.i started with pothos plant varieties.then I discovered philodendron varieties. Now scindapsus pictus varieties.i bought the scindapsus pictus argyerious.i like this one very much.and I'm looking to buy thanks to your tips.the scindapsus pictus silvery ann.and im thinking on buying the scindapsus pictus exotica.your soil mix 60% 70% soil and perlite 30% 40% .hands up.your one of favorites.for tips and like how you keep it simple you done your homework well done. have a good day.take care.🙂👍100%.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
You've just taught me that I actually have an Argyraeus on the way that I ordered today! I didn't know there was a difference in "silver pothos" thanks for the massively informative video on this gorgeous plant.
THANK YOU!!! This was so in depth. I bought mine from the grocery store and could not figure out how to take good care of it. I can not tell you how grateful I am for your video! So in-depth and very helpful
Wow I just bought an Exotica on Saturday and came straight to your page today for some tips and there the video was! Perfect timing and it was so helpful!
I’d have to say that I am a big fan of the Exotica. I have recently purchased an Exotica and I love how there is more of the silveriness on the leaves.
Kat Natural 👋🏼 Hi. Just wanted to add that I bought an Exotica from Planterina too. I got it in January of ‘21 and it’s doing amazingly well (it’s December ‘21 now). It’s gotten so big.
So true its confusing me too at first🤔 I thought theres 3 kinds🤔 *Exotica- very big leaves, *Silvery Anne(smaller and more silver, uneven pattern than exotica, like the other one you show) and *Argyraeus. But theres more other form, *Silver Splash and *Silver Lady. 🤯 Thanks for this video, I learned a lot for the care of this beautiful plant👍
There are just so many versions omg! I don’t even think they look that different from each other 😭😭 Thanks for letting me know the other names, I will definitely be researching & picking them up if I see some in store hehe
Hi! I’m so glad I found your video!! I am a brand new plant mama, and I bought a HUGE silver satin exotica because it was so gorgeous!! It’s almost 4 feet tall and is growing up a thick wooden post. I thought it was just a pretty pothos, so I was a bit surprised when I got my total at the register😳 At the same time I also bought a money tree, and a monstera deliciousa (think I spelled that wrong) and since these were all really big, I grabbed a cute little plant without realizing it was another exotica; it’s the exact same species as my big one but I didn’t realize that until I got it home lol!! I guess I really love how that specific plant looks? Anyways, I thought I had pothos plants!! Hopefully this gorgeous plant is an easy beginner plant because I just love it! Ok back to your video- hopefully I can learn exactly what my new plant needs so I can keep it looking amazing! New subscriber here! -Nora Edited to say thank you! This was so super helpful!!!
that plant grew in my garden for no reason at all. I didnt know what was it but it looked too cute to be common undergrowth so i made a little research and i found this video, ty for the info:)
I love scindapsus! I bought both the exotica and argyraeus 2 days ago. I gave the argyraeus to my mom. I didn't know which was which so thank you for the clarification! 💜
Love the video. I actually have 10 of the Scindapsus variety. Besides the more common ones, I have some more rare like the Silver Hero, Dark Form, Treubii Moonlight, Silver Splash and Lucens. I love the Exotica though with the big fat leaves. Mine is pretty big.
I would have to say Exotica is my favorite but I'm biased because that's the only one of the two that I have! I didn't realize that it was not a pothos plant and got it thinking it would be like my other pothos and it is not. They seem to be cousins but not necessarily the same so that's been fun learning something different. I just brought mines into an office environment because I also have the NE facing window situation at home so I'm hoping to get some more growth from it here with wayyy more light throughout the day!
hello! new to your channel but i love your content. my friend gave me silvery anne for a rehab project because it is extremely neglected. it was a large size pot however it was basically all cuttings instead of a whole plant. super curly leaves and THIN stems lol finally after a few weeks 3 pieces bounced back fully and i’m thinking of propagating the healthy pieces
I was obsessed with the exotica from the moment I first saw one, but now I have an arygyreus (or Silver Anne 🤷♀️) and at this point in my life I am satisfied. They just have a very slightly different effect on the vibes or asthetic. And I think my silver Anne fits better with my current environmental asthetic. Someday that will change though, and I think I will crave the exotica again. 🙃
The local plant seller sold me three pots of silver satin pothos but after watching your video on the Scindapsus Pictus 'Argyraeus' and Scindapsus Pictus 'Exotica' for the nth time, I can identify the plant as a Scindapsus Pictus 'Exotica'.
I have both! I couldn't pick, lol :-) I like the speckling on the argyraeus, and the giant leaves of the exotica, so I just love both for different reasons. They have 12'+ vines and have taken over my office. They did get a little leggy this summer, so I am rooting some cuttings to fill them back out.
I just purchased an argyreus after coming across the last one in the store. It looks better in person and I love it so far. Now that I see how easy it is to propagate and care for, I might break some off to gift to others.
I just found out I have an exotica! Your advice about the leaves 🍃 curling up is on point...I was wondering why mine did that. Thank you, I love your videos. Please do another string of hearts video...mine is having big time issues and it’s making me sad. 🍃💕
Actually all those are Epipremnum aureums. The name was changed to scindapsus in 1908 by Adolf Engler but the specy itself is still an Epipremnum. It's just a subgenre. Despite the updated list name in 1964, there's still major confusion when all of those are sometimes called epipremnum or sindapsus or pothos. They are all pretty much the same.
I have a sindapsis pictus argerious. I wasn't sure what it was. I have it hanging in a north facing window and the vines are about 10' long the leaves are green & velvety. Thank you for this video I find it very helpful.
Yess, I completely agree!! They are both so pretty, but mostly when they’re separated & with their own little plant group. Gotta love them individually
Could be overwatering or too much fertilizer. Use organic or less fertilizer, use worm casting to top the soil if already 6mons or more in pots since soil needs nourishments. Stop touching ur plants & moving places.
I have the Silvery Anne, and DID have an Exotica... I'm down to one leaf in water :( I will get another starter plant to add to my one leaf, once the weather warms up! Love them both!
I just started planting some Argyraeus cuttings. I came across your channel while looking for some propagation and care tips. Thanks, I learned something from your vlog. Btw, I just clicked like and subscribe. 🙂
Hey Girl Hey! Oh my gosh I totally agree that Argyraeus was definitely the plant I liked more, until I saw your video that is, seeing them side by side like this is incredible and I now know I can't live without adding both to my collection. lol. Thank you for the wonderful comparison, tips, tricks and all in all the video because it was very informative.
Argyraeus is actually called satin pothos since there is already a silvery ann variety and the silver spots are going more towards the tips for silvery ann and more even with silver rim for argy, hope this helps! :)
You are very, very incorrect. There is no such thing as a Silver Satin or Satin 'Pothos.' The genus of Epipremnum, more commonly called Pothos, is not Scindapsus Pictus, which is the genus subject of this video. Pothos and Scindapsus Pictus are two entirely different genera. Erika's info in this video is also wrong, as there are 6 varieties of Scindapsus Pictus, not two.
A little bit ago, I went searching for either of these at all my local shops, and no one had anything other than Golden Pothos...so I ordered some cebu blue pothos online. Yeah, I was so upset I couldn't find what I wanted locally, I got all spiteful and ordered something else online instead. When I finally do get some of these (the exotica ones) I'll tell it that story to ensure it knows what'll happen if it doesn't grow fast enough for my liking.
I always find these at Armstrong if you have one near you! I’m not sure if they have any outside of California because that’s where I live but you might have better luck with a nursery! The stores that sell plants around me don’t really have anything besides pothos either and it’s such a bummer.
Carl Fisher agreed! I was shocked to find one at my local Home Depot last year and I mean literally they had only one as I mentioned in my previous comment above I Purchased last February it is now almost 10 feet long and it’s hanging in my bathroom so been very lucky with it.
Hi beautiful girl love from New Zealand 🇳🇿 I was searching to find the right name of the plant and I found you 😊 I'm one of the indoor plants lover and I'm Happy to get what I wanted from your video thanks so much ❤
I like them. I killed my first scindapsus plants. Too much sun and too much water at the same time. Only recently I started buying them again. So far so good. Exotica has the most healthy look for now. Today I found lush pot of Argyraeus In Walmart. That's a good start.
what id like to know is why is my scindapsus' leaves curling even though the soil is super moist? i received it from the internet and it was moist, leaves doing ok, and i said i could wait another week to water it but the leaves are curling inwards although the soil is still super moist! help!
I would make sure it is enough light and try airing out the soil. You can do this by poking the soil with a chop stick gently to create more air flow for the plant :) mine is doing what yours is doing but I had cuttings that I just put in soil so it’s still acclimating to the soil. Just keep an eye on it and the roots and give it some time. I’ve noticed that scindapsus take much longer to root (from cuttings) and acclimate. I hope this was helpful!
Exotica is my favourite, because of the larger leafs. I purchased cuttings of Exotica, but sometimes I wonder if they're the Argyraeus? I hope they're Exotica. One of the cuttings have successfully rooted, the other is taking it's time. When they get bigger, I'll be able to tell which one it is. Thanks for this video.
Hello Erika thank you for sharing this video. I have the same plant cuts, I had the cuts in water all summer but they did not root!! 😔 not sure why.. can you try to guess why? What’s reasons could be connected it with? Thank you 🙏🏻 ❤️
hi just love your videos and i just got an Arguraeus and she’s just gorgeous i’ve had her about a month and i want to propagate her so bad, but everytime i go to do it i just can’t, she’s so beautiful i just can’t seem to make myself do it. maybe in another month i’ll be able to make myself cut one of her long beautiful stems. wish me luck...
Thank you!! Ugh, I completely know how you feel 😫 sometimes they’re just too gorgeous to chop! Since it’s spring, it’ll grow back a lot faster though. So you have that to look forward to when you’re able to do it 🤩 good luck!
Just saw this video. I really like them both. I love the bigger leaves of the Exotica but the green leaves of the Silver Anne. My plant space is limited not sure if I will get one. Just have a golden pothos for now. Could you do a video on grow lights and a separate one on watering? That would be great.
Glad you made this video. I bought two different ones from same company an when they arrived it was exact plant! Grrrr The Company even sold a third one under different name an all the plants were the same. 🤪
Great informational video, and your sound is so clear! Whatever you're using for a mic, it was a good choice. Question - you didn't mention what happens to the plant at the point where you cut the piece off. Does it just stop growing there, or does a node take over, or does it split and add more growth?
i have a plant that looks a lot like this. the grey blotches are much smaller. it is a trailing plant. a very active trailing plant. it also has some pretty cool flower bunches. i never see pothos or pictus shown with flowers. wish i could figure out what my plant is
Hey girl, just letting you know, there is actually SIX varieties (that I’m aware of) of Scindapsus Pictus.
• Scindapsus Pictus Jade Satin
• Scindapsus Pictus Argyraeus
• Scindapsus Pictus Exotica
• Scindapsus Pictus Silvery Anne
• Scindapsus Pictus Silver Lady
• Scindapsus Pictus Silver Silver Splash
There may even be more! :)

Erika Lodes they all look very similar, but completely different at the same time, if that even makes sense haha

Facts
If you think you have it bad, try loving plants AND reptiles.😩 No one thinks my lizards and snake are cute.🥺
I can relate, even I want a friend who understands my love and feelings that I have towards my plants or any plants for that matter 😁. They say I’m over crazy about them, and yes I’m I can’t deny it, they are my therapy 💚.
I've watched this multiple times. So helpful! I love the Argyraeus. I have failed with this plant in the past and now I have four thriving ones! 💚🌱
Aghh don't scare me like that. I have very bad luck with plants.
I love love love my exotica! It sits on a shelf in my entrance by the front door. I told hubby if there’s ever a fire be sure to grab my plant on the way out! 😂 I do love my argyraeus too though. I only had a small one but recently found a hanging pot of it at Lowe’s. I had to get it!
You 100% have your priorities straight! Lol
The ones at Lowe’s are hard to come by, I’m glad you were able to pick one up 😍

I just bought my Scindapsus Pictus Exotica today and I'm in love. So beautiful!
Pauses video.....and I have an Argyraeus!! Thank you, Erika!
😄 I’m glad I could help!
And mines dying!! 😭
I dunno if it’s the water or the sun or whatttt 😭
THANK YOU!!! This was so in depth. I bought mine from the grocery store and could not figure out how to take good care of it. I can not tell you how grateful I am for your video! So in-depth and very helpful

That’s so funny! Im glad the you found it helpful (‘: Enjoy your new baby 🥰💖🌱
I’d have to say that I am a big fan of the Exotica. I have recently purchased an Exotica and I love how there is more of the silveriness on the leaves.
I just got an argyraeus! I’m so excited they’re beautiful
My favorite is the Exotica, it has more personality. I have a baby one that just arrived from planterina. Wonderful video lady!!!!!
How’s your exotica doing now? I’ve been debating if I should order from Planterina, absolutely love her.
@@KatNaturalBeauty hi lady it's doing great and growing so much, thanks for asking. I like it because it's simple, not a diva
Kat Natural 👋🏼 Hi. Just wanted to add that I bought an Exotica from Planterina too. I got it in January of ‘21 and it’s doing amazingly well (it’s December ‘21 now). It’s gotten so big.
I’m also obsessed with all of them! I have multiples, I can’t quit buying them when I see them! ☺️ Thanks for sharing!!
A little garden of Scindapsus ☺️ so cute!
You are such a happy person, thank you for your videos.
I was actually wondering why my leaves on my scindapsus were growing in so small so thanks for all the tips
1 years its still fresh videos... 👍 From MALAYSIA
Thanks for the great video! Scindapsus are a recent favorite of mine and I super appreciate your thorough coverage of all facets of care.
I so love these plants! They are so beautiful! I love both of them equally! Im a “really good plant mom”...
😂😂 you a truly an amazing plant mom who loves her children equally haha
I am in LOVE with scindapsus lately!! I want them all!!! I still need a exotica, jade satin and trubii (the silver splash is mind blowing in person!)
They are soo prettyyyy 🤤 you gotta get em all!!! Giiirllll I just looked up the jade satin. You made me put it on my wishlist lol
@@ErikaLodes Right!! Its so hard to find though!!! 😢 Did you get a trubii yet? Saw that in your last wishlist!
So true its confusing me too at first🤔
I thought theres 3 kinds🤔 *Exotica- very big leaves, *Silvery Anne(smaller and more silver, uneven pattern than exotica, like the other one you show) and *Argyraeus. But theres more other form, *Silver Splash and *Silver Lady. 🤯
Thanks for this video, I learned a lot for the care of this beautiful plant👍
There are just so many versions omg! I don’t even think they look that different from each other 😭😭 Thanks for letting me know the other names, I will definitely be researching & picking them up if I see some in store hehe
My Argyreus was labeled "Silvery Ann" and it is a super prolific grower.
Ugh yes that’s what we love, fast growing bebes

This video is very informative, atleast now I know which is which with those numerous silver pothos varieties. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much for sharing! Your plants are so beautiful!
I finally got my first Scindapsus and found your information very useful :)

Nice tip on leaves curling. Didn’t know that.
I think you are fab 😊 you answer every ones’ comment. I bought an Algeria today the leave where curling but thought I will try to recover it. 😉
BEST video on exotica and argyraeus 👏🏻
I have a sindapsis pictus argerious. I wasn't sure what it was.
I have it hanging in a north facing window and the vines are about 10' long the leaves are green & velvety.
Thank you for this video I find it very helpful.
i like both. maybe not when they are side by side, but i see how nice they will look near other plants and i want them both 😅
Yess, I completely agree!! They are both so pretty, but mostly when they’re separated & with their own little plant group. Gotta love them individually
where did you buy that bucket and scoop for repotting? It's so cute!
Just got my Anny. It’s so Beautiful 🤩 and so full
All my plant’s leaves are yellowing :( is it somehow getting too much light? It’s not in front of a window, if that helps
Could be overwatering or too much fertilizer. Use organic or less fertilizer, use worm casting to top the soil if already 6mons or more in pots since soil needs nourishments. Stop touching ur plants & moving places.
I have the Silvery Anne, and DID have an Exotica... I'm down to one leaf in water :( I will get another starter plant to add to my one leaf, once the weather warms up! Love them both!
I ordered a “silver satin” on Home Depot and got a “silvery Anne” in the mail. I didn’t even know they were different.
I think I like them both. I do like the smaller leaves of the argyraeus & more of the variations you can get vs the exotica though.
I just started planting some Argyraeus cuttings. I came across your channel while looking for some propagation and care tips. Thanks, I learned something from your vlog. Btw, I just clicked like and subscribe. 🙂
This was great. I had one but didn’t know which type it was....now I know. Will be on the lookout for an exotica version to have as well.
Hey Girl Hey! Oh my gosh I totally agree that Argyraeus was definitely the plant I liked more, until I saw your video that is, seeing them side by side like this is incredible and I now know I can't live without adding both to my collection. lol. Thank you for the wonderful comparison, tips, tricks and all in all the video because it was very informative.
Argyraeus is actually called satin pothos since there is already a silvery ann variety and the silver spots are going more towards the tips for silvery ann and more even with silver rim for argy, hope this helps! :)
You are very, very incorrect.
There is no such thing as a Silver Satin or Satin 'Pothos.' The genus of Epipremnum, more commonly called Pothos, is not Scindapsus Pictus, which is the genus subject of this video.
Pothos and Scindapsus Pictus are two entirely different genera.
Erika's info in this video is also wrong, as there are 6 varieties of Scindapsus Pictus, not two.
If my leaves are on the smaller side but I move it to higher light will they eventually grow bigger? Or once they’re small they stay small. Thanks!
They should grow!
A little bit ago, I went searching for either of these at all my local shops, and no one had anything other than Golden Pothos...so I ordered some cebu blue pothos online. Yeah, I was so upset I couldn't find what I wanted locally, I got all spiteful and ordered something else online instead. When I finally do get some of these (the exotica ones) I'll tell it that story to ensure it knows what'll happen if it doesn't grow fast enough for my liking.
I always find these at Armstrong if you have one near you! I’m not sure if they have any outside of California because that’s where I live but you might have better luck with a nursery! The stores that sell plants around me don’t really have anything besides pothos either and it’s such a bummer.
Carl Fisher agreed! I was shocked to find one at my local Home Depot last year and I mean literally they had only one as I mentioned in my previous comment above I Purchased last February it is now almost 10 feet long and it’s hanging in my bathroom so been very lucky with it.
I got the Algeria in Home Depot last month. Also saw some in Lowes
😂😂😂 When you get some, they better know they’re on thin ice & get growing!
Thank-you for that potting demonstration. I love the Argyereous plant 🌿💚
Hi beautiful girl love from New Zealand 🇳🇿 I was searching to find the right name of the plant and I found you 😊
I'm one of the indoor plants lover and I'm Happy to get what I wanted from your video thanks so much ❤
Thank you! I always wondered what the difference was!!
I love to listen to you experiences about Scindapsus! But I find it very difficult to identify some varieties. You and your plants are lovely!
I like them. I killed my first scindapsus plants. Too much sun and too much water at the same time. Only recently I started buying them again. So far so good. Exotica has the most healthy look for now. Today I found lush pot of Argyraeus In Walmart. That's a good start.
Thank you for sharing tips on scindapsus pictus. I don’t have this plant in our collection and now will reconsider getting one. 💚 👍🌿
They are so gorgeous & easy care! If you find one for a good price you definitely should pick it up :)
I have both and love the exotica. But both are beautiful😊
what id like to know is why is my scindapsus' leaves curling even though the soil is super moist? i received it from the internet and it was moist, leaves doing ok, and i said i could wait another week to water it but the leaves are curling inwards although the soil is still super moist! help!
I would make sure it is enough light and try airing out the soil. You can do this by poking the soil with a chop stick gently to create more air flow for the plant :) mine is doing what yours is doing but I had cuttings that I just put in soil so it’s still acclimating to the soil. Just keep an eye on it and the roots and give it some time. I’ve noticed that scindapsus take much longer to root (from cuttings) and acclimate. I hope this was helpful!
@@MykieJean it was, thank you! 😊
Exotica is my favourite, because of the larger leafs. I purchased cuttings of Exotica, but sometimes I wonder if they're the Argyraeus? I hope they're Exotica. One of the cuttings have successfully rooted, the other is taking it's time. When they get bigger, I'll be able to tell which one it is. Thanks for this video.
Hello Erika thank you for sharing this video. I have the same plant cuts, I had the cuts in water all summer but they did not root!! 😔 not sure why.. can you try to guess why? What’s reasons could be connected it with? Thank you 🙏🏻 ❤️
I have lots of Epipremnun aureum schindapsus looks great too I think I'll find one of those in my area.
Thank you for this helpful advice. my plants also thank you!
scindapsus are my fav :) thanks for the video Erika! some great tips
Argyraeus is my favorite!
Nice! It seems Exoticas are more popular atm, so I’m glad to see someone giving some love to the Argyraeus 🥰
Hey Erika, I really enjoy your vids. My favorite is the Exotica but I have them both in my collection.
Thank you for this video. I recently purchased the EXOTICA :) now I know the name and how to take care of it!
9:48 *Agh!* I almost jumped out of my chair! Lol!!
I didn't mean that rudely. I enjoy your videos, thank you for being so thorough!
hi just love your videos and i just got an Arguraeus and she’s just gorgeous i’ve had her about a month and i want to propagate her so bad, but everytime i go to do it i just can’t, she’s so beautiful i just can’t seem to make myself do it. maybe in another month i’ll be able to make myself cut one of her long beautiful stems. wish me luck...
Thank you!! Ugh, I completely know how you feel 😫 sometimes they’re just too gorgeous to chop! Since it’s spring, it’ll grow back a lot faster though. So you have that to look forward to when you’re able to do it 🤩 good luck!
So pretty the foliage of scindapsus variety
Why do your roots look so pretty and green. Mine are all dark🥺
Yours is different type of scindapsus (maybe dark mode one)
Girl same! At first was not having it with Trebie(exotica?), ugly but was ''forced' to get it since Argyraeus was out of stock.
Just saw this video. I really like them both. I love the bigger leaves of the Exotica but the green leaves of the Silver Anne. My plant space is limited not sure if I will get one. Just have a golden pothos for now. Could you do a video on grow lights and a separate one on watering? That would be great.
Glad you made this video. I bought two different ones from same company an when they arrived it was exact plant! Grrrr The Company even sold a third one under different name an all the plants were the same. 🤪
😱😱 oh my gosh I can’t believe it!!! I’m sorry that happened, I hope it wasn’t too expensive. Hopefully they do something about it ☹️
Scindapsus Pictus Argyraeus is one my favorite plants
The space between the nodes is called the 'internode". 🌠
I’m looking for the exotica & cant find it, I have the silvery Ann but can’t find the exotica, I can’t wait until I do😊
Etsy has several sellers with Exoticas🌱❤🍃🤗
Great informational video, and your sound is so clear! Whatever you're using for a mic, it was a good choice. Question - you didn't mention what happens to the plant at the point where you cut the piece off. Does it just stop growing there, or does a node take over, or does it split and add more growth?
Thanks! It will grow a new vine off to the side on the last node or one node above. I hope this makes sense
@@ErikaLodes Thanks. I was hoping it would grow 2, so that taking a cutting would fill out the original plant.
Amazing! Thanks for sharing your knowledge! :)
i have a plant that looks a lot like this. the grey blotches are much smaller. it is a trailing plant. a very active trailing plant. it also has some pretty cool flower bunches. i never see pothos or pictus shown with flowers. wish i could figure out what my plant is
So beautifully scindapsuspictus😍😍😍
Thank you for your video! I just picked this up from a local shop and they didnt know what it was. ^.^
Thanks for the info. So fun learning. I have the Anne one
I love your smile so much 😍
Girl. I have the same little propagation jar!! ❤️ thanks for this informative video!
Gorgeous Plants💐
Thank you so much Erika! What if the leaves are curled, but are turning yellow?
Grow lights are as good as sun if you choose the right ones and the right led wattage as that of an East sun. Not too much and not too little.
Definitely the Exotica! I have 4 types Exotica is Awesome! Thx
