Care Instructions

The Scindapsus Creme Brulee is relatively easy to care for, provided its basic needs are met. It thrives in conditions that mimic its natural tropical environment.

• Light: Provide bright, indirect light to maintain the vibrant variegation. While it can tolerate medium light, insufficient light may cause the variegation to fade. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the leaves.
• Watering: Allow the top layer of soil to dry out between waterings. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure the pot has proper drainage. During the growing season (spring and summer), water more frequently, but reduce watering in the fall and winter.
• Humidity: This tropical plant thrives in high humidity levels, ideally around 60–80%. If your home is dry, consider misting the plant, using a pebble tray, or placing it near a humidifier.
• Temperature: Keep the plant in a warm environment, ideally between 68–86°F (20–30°C). Avoid exposing it to temperatures below 55°F (13°C) or cold drafts, as these can harm the plant.
• Soil: Use a well-draining soil mix, such as one designed for aroids. A mix of potting soil, perlite, and orchid bark works well to provide aeration and prevent waterlogging.
• Fertilizer: Feed your Scindapsus Creme Brulee with a diluted liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding in the fall and winter when the plant’s growth slows.
