Scindapsus 'Coriaceus'

Variegated Scindapsus Coriaceus 🌿✨ is loved for its elongated leaves marked with bold yellow variegation, giving it a cleaner, more unusual look than many common trailing houseplants. It does best in bright indirect light indoors, where the variegation stays strongest and the vines can climb beautifully with support or trail from a shelf as they mature. This plant is generally manageable, but it grows best with steady warmth, an airy mix, and watering only after the top layer of soil starts to dry. Pro tip: if the yellow variegation starts fading or the growth gets stretched, move it a little closer to brighter light and give it something to climb 💧.
