Scindapsus - Devil's Ivy


Devil's ivy is an easily grown trailing plant, suitable for hanging pots. Provide medium or bright light with no direct sunlight. Keep the soil moderately moist except in winter when it should be run drier. Fertilize moderately when the plant is actively growing. Ideal temperatures are 62 to 65 degrees at night and up to 85 degrees during the day. Provide cooler temperatures during rest periods. Variegated types lose their coloration when grown in insufficient light. The plant is often confused with trailing types of philodendron.

Propagation is by stem cuttings.
