Silver gloss. Lemon flash. Not your average pothos.
This is a rare variegated cross between Scindapsus ‘Moonlight’—known for its matte-silver sheen—and Scindapsus ‘Lemon’, a form with bright chartreuse-to-cream splash variegation. Together, they produce softly textured, velvety foliage with high-sheen silver overlay, lemon-lime marbling, and occasional sectoral bursts of cream or pale yellow.
Each plant expresses differently depending on environment and genetics. Some lean toward silver-dominant leaves with subtle yellow accents, while others flash bold cream streaks across lime-green backgrounds. Regardless of balance, every leaf has that signature Scindapsus shimmer, making this a compact, variegated vining aroid worth a second look.
All plants are fully rooted in aroid potting mix, and we offer two formats:
-
Exact Plant – 4" Pot
The exact plant shown. Rooted, stable, and showing current variegation expression. -
Grower’s Choice – 4" Pot
A rooted plant from the same hybrid line. All are vetted for visible variegation and good structure. Color ratio and silver vs. lemon dominance will vary. No wet sticks, no props.
This is a slow-growing, tropical vining plant that thrives in bright filtered light and does best when allowed to dry slightly between waterings.

Shipping Note:
All plants ship rooted in soil and are packed to minimize stress. Due to the velvety texture and light variegation, cosmetic wear during transit is possible—including minor leaf curl, yellowing, or bruising. These are cosmetic only and do not affect plant health. Soil may shift and can be gently resettled upon unpacking.
