Their deep green leaves have an artistic splash of silver across them. There is no wonder why Scindapsus Silver Lady plants, also known as Satin Pothos, are so desirable and special.

Pothos plants are originally from Southeast Asia. In this article you will see photos of one that we have been growing for years. We use it as a stunning centrepiece on our dining table.

We will teach you how to care for a Silver Lady, the soil and humidity it likes, and if it is pet safe.

Scindapsus Silver Lady Care

Like a lot of indoor house plants this plant family originates from the lush jungles and forests. When brought into our homes and offices we should try to recreate similar conditions.

The article below details how to keep a Scindapsus Silver Lady growing strong for years to come.

Scindapsus Silver Lady Light requirements

These plants love the bright indirect sun. Placing then a few feet from any window will provide them with enough sun to grow strong.

The more light they have, the quicker they are likely grow, so dim area of your home will be okay, but don't expect them to grow as fast as in a bright area.

If it's possible, place your Scindapsus Pictus in a warm area with the indirect sun. The warmth will usually do a great job creating humidity. The areas where this plant originates from are warm, so we try to recreate that.

How much water does a Scindapsus Silver Lady need?

It is best to let them dry out between waterings. When you see the soil start to pull away from the edges of the container you can tell that the moisture is almost gone from the soil.

The pot will feel light when you lift it up. Press your finger an inch or so into the soil and check for moisture. If your finger is dry and no soil stuck, then it is time to water.

Summer months we will water more frequently. The plant will be getting much more sun, it will want to grow faster, and it needs more water to do so. In the winter times you will water every week, and sometimes every two weeks.

Soil requirements

A well-draining potting mix from your local supply store will let your Scindapsus Silver Lady grow strong roots. The perlite that the soil comes with is okay, but adding a couple handles to a 6 inch pot will help your plant a bit more.

We also like to fertilize plants with all-natural and easy-to-use fertilizer. It's safe to use every watering as it is diluted.

Humidity requirements

A Silver Lady will do just fine in most environments in Canada. House humidity in Canada is set between 30% and 40%, and in these conditions your plant will learn to adapt.

These are tropical plants though, so people love to put them in bathrooms. The plant will enjoy the extra humidity from your baths and showers.

Moving your plant around the house is something you have to think about, and we have a quick video here.

How to Propagate a Scindapsus Silver Lady

A Scindapsus Silver Lady is easily propagated, and a very straightforward process. It is almost the same for variety of other indoor house plants.

When you propagate it for a long time you will be able to grow one to the size that we have in the photographs. 

Soil Propagation Method

When you are ready to propagate, fill a growers pot (or plastic cup) with a soil of your choice (read about the soil requirements above).

Cut a piece of your Scindapsus Silver Lady just below a node on branch. The node is what puts out the new roots.

Place the cut area in the soil right away, and add water. When sprouting roots, soil has to be kept moist, usually more wet than you'd normally want for this plant. This is because we are trying to stimulate growth in the plant with water.

When the roots grow and take hold of your soil, the Silver Lady will grow into a whole new plant.

Water Propagation Method

Fill a jar or cup with filtered water, preferably not city water from the tap as it contains chlorine; safe for humans, but not baby plants. We like to use small clear jars.

Cut a piece of your Scindapsus Silver Lady just below a node on branch. The node is what puts out new roots.

Place the cut are in the water immediately. After a couple weeks you will see that it has put out roots. You can now transfer your plant to soil.


Pest Control with a Scindapsus Silver Lady

Every plant indoors and out, is susceptible to a pest. The more plants, the more chances that a friendly bug from an open window or your hike will set up shop. Your plant is a healthy plant, and bugs love healthy plants; they live in the nutrient rich soil.

Don't worry! It is all part of owning a plant. We sell the BEST Koppert's pest control products. Koppert's is the same company that organic growers use to keep pests under control. 

As always, feel free to contact us if you need any help in this area. We love to assist and find the right products for you.

Are Scindapsus Silver Lady's Pet Friendly?

A satin pothos, like many other pothos plants, is not a pet friendly plant.

We always advise that plants are kept our of reach of pets and children. Most plants will cause irritation in your pets' mouth. This irritation is enough to deter them from eating again, but keeping them out of reach is always the best idea, as higher levels of ingestion can be dangerous.

Conclusion

A Scindapsus Pictus is an absolutely stunning indoor house plant. With its green leaves and splash of silver, it will draw attention and be perfect in your office or quiet living room.

It is easy to care for, which is also why it makes a great plant for those new to the hobby, or who want more freedom with watering requirements,

My favorite sunscreen
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I love this sunscreen and have been carrying a can in my bag all this summer. To address a couple of common complaints: “It’s not sheer at all”: “Sheer” does not mean the same thing as “clear,” people. This spray is white and absolutely does rub in to be sheer as advertised. It leaves a slight (“sheer”) white tinge after rubbing in, but it’s not super noticeable on my pale skin. It might be more problematic on darker skin tones. (Also, it should be noted that there is literally no such thing as clear mineral sunscreen- you will have to choose between a product like this and a clear one containing endocrine disruptors. I’d rather look a little pasty, personally.) “My whole family used this and got burned”: You need to shake the can before spraying, as per the instructions. These sprays are made of zinc (the active, protective ingredient) in a liquid suspension. If you spray without shaking the can first, you risk getting all liquid and no zinc particles, and then yes, you will burn. I’m pretty sensitive and this sunscreen has not failed me yet. “It’s hard to get off”: This is true. It is hard to get off. But why would you want a sunscreen to come off easily?? This stuff is water resistant to an impressive degree. In the evening if it takes a vigorous scrubbing to get it off, I consider the exfoliation a bonus. Also, my nozzles have worked just fine and the cans last me quite a good amount of time.

It really is water resistant
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This stuff is great. Normally when buying a green sunscreen, I have to sacrifice the aerosol feature and default to a lotion. This has a very neutral scent and sprays easily and evenly. It is zinc-based, so it will leave a white haze on your skin. I did need to rub it in after spraying, which helped minimize the white hue. It does love bathing suits, so be prepared to also rub the zinc powder into your bathing suit, otherwise it will be spray painted white. I used this while tubing and did not get burned--just nice and toasty-tan. The biggest downside is that it has a very slight stickiness/tackiness to it. I showered twice before I finally felt like it was all off my skin. But at least it didn't come off in the river!

Leaves skin WHITE and chalky!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This sunscreen is the worst. it leaves your skin feeling chalky, and totally white. it is difficult to get it off. I accidentally bought it twice two years apart thinking it was the one I liked, but nope. floated the river and even trying to rub it off in the water wouldn't remove the white cast on my skin all day. If you don't mind chalky skin and looking white, then go for it.

Great convenient nontoxic spray sunblock option that really works!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I am very serious about nontoxic products for my family, particularly for my young children. I also insist on sunscreen almost every day. The unfortunate thing is that I really dislike actually applying sunscreen! lol! I don't mind on normal mornings (and we usually use the Green Screen Organic Sunscreen SPF 32 Original - Vegan - Gluten-free or Babo Botanicals SPF 40 Daily Sheer Facial Sunscreen, Unscented), but when we are on the go or at the beach, I wanted to make it as easy as possible to apply. We bought this for a beach getaway over the summer and it really surprised me. It is an easy application (shake, spray, rub) and it really worked. Two children and two adults used this on the entire body and face along with some extra stick protection on the face. I reapplied a few times, but not religiously and no one got a burn... no one really even got a tan. It says that it is sweat and water proof up until a certain point and I believe it really is because we were in scorching heat on the beach (in the water too) and no one had any issues. The great thing is that it really did make application easy so I think we reapplied more appropriately than we would have with a regular tube of sublock. I am not experienced with spray sunblocks so I cannot compare with others, but I believe it is similar. Note, since this is a nontoxic sublock that is zinc based, it does go on white and also sprays whatever it gets on white, but I didn't have any problems. It rubs in very easily and seemed to come off of carpet, clothes, etc. very easily as well. This is now a regular go-to for us even on non-beach days.

Ok, but not great for the price.
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
The good: 1. Doesn't have that typical sunscreen sent. (I hate that smell so that is a major plus for me.). 2. Doesn't burn my eyes 3. Doesn't clog my porse (some sunscreen gives me back acne) The bad: 1. On my skin (And I suspect anyone who has melanin ) it leaves a chalk-like film that makes me look ashy. 2. When you spray it IT GETS EVERYWHERE! On the floor, walls and pretty much tow feet from wherever you are standing. 3. I bought this at the 1st of the month it's 18th and the bottle is EMPTY! And I didn't even use it every day (obviously only used when I was outside in the sun.) 4. Feels chalkie on the skin. Overall while not a bad product, I will not be purchasing again too many issues and cons for the price.
