Moonlight Scindapsus (Scindapsus treubii 'Moonlight') is a true collector’s gem, admired for its thick, shimmering silver leaves and elegant growth pattern. Native to the tropical rainforests of Indonesia and Borneo, this slow-growing species stands apart from the more common Scindapsus pictus with its solid, satin-like foliage and refined silhouette.
Each leaf reflects a subtle metallic glow that brightens any plant shelf or hanging display. Its compact form makes it ideal for small spaces, while its trailing habit shines on trellises or moss poles. A must-have for anyone who appreciates understated botanical luxury.
Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its silvery glow. It will tolerate medium light, though the leaves may appear darker and growth will slow slightly.
Allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry between waterings. Good drainage is essential—avoid letting the roots sit in water to prevent rot.
This tropical species thrives in humidity levels of 60% or higher. Keep it comfortable between 65–75°F and away from cold drafts or heat vents.
Use a chunky, well-draining aroid mix—something with peat moss, perlite, and orchid bark works perfectly. This blend keeps roots aerated and reduces overwatering risks.
During the active growing season (spring through summer), feed monthly with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength.
Expect a slow but steady vining growth, reaching up to 3 feet over time. Perfect for hanging baskets or vertical climbing on a moss pole.
The Moonlight Scindapsus adds rare silver tones to any collection and complements other species like Scindapsus pictus ‘Argyraeus’ or Exotica. Its luminous foliage catches light beautifully and offers a sleek contrast to green or variegated varieties.
Elegant, rare, and remarkably easy to maintain, the Moonlight Scindapsus deserves a place in every collector’s lineup. Add one to your home and enjoy the calm, silvery glow it brings to your indoor garden.
They’re close cousins but not the same. While both are in the Araceae family, Scindapsus treubii ‘Moonlight’ has thicker, satin-silver leaves and a slower growth rate than Epipremnum aureum (Pothos). It’s often mistaken for Pothos due to its vining habit, but the texture and coloration are distinct.
Insufficient light can reduce the silver overlay, causing leaves to look greener. Move your plant to bright, indirect light to restore its metallic sheen. Avoid direct sun, which can scorch foliage.
It’s a slow grower. Expect compact, steady growth rather than long vines. In warm temps, good humidity, and bright light, new leaves unfurl every few weeks in spring/summer.
Yes. Take a cutting with at least one node, then root in water or a chunky, well-draining mix. Keep humidity high and light bright. Growth is patient, not fast.
A chunky aroid blend: peat or coco coir + perlite + orchid bark. This keeps roots aerated and reduces overwatering risk.
No. It’s toxic if ingested by pets or humans. Display out of reach of curious companions.
All live plants are carefully prepared and hand-packed to protect them during transit. Plants are shipped in their pots (not bare-root), with soil secured using polyfill to prevent shifting. Stems and foliage are supported with paper wrapping to reduce movement and minimize stress during shipping. We may adjust shipping timing based on weather conditions to protect plant health.
Most live plant orders ship within 5–15 business days. Shipping may be delayed during extreme heat or cold to protect plant health. Processing time is separate from transit time.
Yes, we ship year-round when conditions are safe. During extreme weather, we may temporarily hold shipments rather than risk damage in transit.
Minor shipping stress is normal. This may include slight leaf drop, drooping, or cosmetic blemishes. Most plants recover after a short adjustment period with proper care.
Not necessarily. Leaf loss can occur due to shipping stress or temperature changes, especially in winter. As long as the plant shows signs of life at the root or stem level, it is considered viable and may recover.
During colder months, we may recommend adding a Heat pack to help reduce transit stress. Heat packs help mitigate risk but do not eliminate the possibility of cosmetic cold stress.
Yes. Heat packs are available during colder months and are recommended when temperatures may affect plant health in transit. Please note that heat packs reduce risk but do not guarantee plant health, especially during extreme weather.
Most orders ship within 5–15 business days from the date of purchase.
We are a small, independently operated team, and all plants are inspected, prepared, and packed by hand. Unlike standard retail items, live plants require careful timing and handling to ensure safe delivery.

Good question — and we’re glad you asked. Because we work with living plants, our inventory is always changing, and plants are often grown and shipped in batches. This makes it impractical to photograph every individual plant.
The photos on each product page are representative of the average size and fullness of that plant at the time of listing. While natural variation is expected — some plants may be slightly larger or smaller — your plant will be similar in overall appearance and quality.
Each plant is hand-selected and packed with care to ensure it arrives healthy and ready to grow.
Unbox your plant promptly, place it in bright, indirect light, and allow a few days to adjust before repotting or making changes. See our Plant Unboxing Guide for detailed tips.
Express shipping may be available on select items at checkout. Please note that faster shipping does not always eliminate weather-related risks and processing for live plants. Need your order sooner? Send an email to support@edsplantshop.com
