You've probably seen the cultivars "Argyraeus" and "Exotica" at your local plant store, but you may be less familiar with "Silvery Ann". Scindapsus pictus "Silvery Ann" is a fairly new cultivar that resembles "Argyraeus" in leaf size but displays irregular, large splashes of silvery variegation on its leaves. This silvery type of variegation is what is known as blister variegation.
Unlike the variegation in other plants such as Pothos or Monstera, blister variegation is caused by the epidermis and lower layer of the leaf separating causing air pockets to form. The silvery affect we see on these leaves is actually light reflecting off of these air pockets! This silver spotted Scindapsus type originates from the jungles of South-East Asia, Indonesia and the Salomon Islands.
Care:
Bloom: None
Light: Medium to bright indirect light. If grown in medium or lower light the leaves may be less silvery.
Moisture: When dry the leaves will curl inwards. If your plant does this simply give it a good soak!
Humidity: Enjoys humidity above 50% but will tolerate lower
Fertilizer: Twice a month during the growing season.
Mature Size: 6ft long, 3ft wide
Habit: Scindapsus pictus is a shingling plant. When climbing its leaves pressed flat against structure. When not given a structure grows as a trailing plant.
