Details

Mount Salak is an absolutely mesmerizing—and hard-to-find—houseplant that features gorgeous dark green leaves playfully patterned with multiple shades of silver. The foliage has tiny crystals that reflect light, giving it an almost metallic appearance, and in bright light, it seems to sparkle. It’s a beautiful climbing/trailing plant you can enjoy ascending a wall or trellis, or gracefully trailing from a hanging basket or plant shelf. No matter where you put it, make sure it’s where you can enjoy those beautiful leaves right up close. This exceptional houseplant will be delivered fresh from our farm direct to your doorstep. Shipping, handling, and a heat pack (if needed) is included in the price.

Super trendy with plant collectors and perfect for showing off on social media
Lives for years with good care and tolerates medium or bright light

Care

Light Level: Indirect Sunlight

This plant needs to live in a room with at least some natural light. Place it on a table or countertop with windows nearby.

Water Level: Thirsty

This plant can only go 1-2 weeks without water so check on it weekly and add water every time the top two inches of soil dry out.

Quick Tips

From time to time, it may start producing new growth that’s not so crinkly. If that happens, just pinch off the new growth and let it re-sprout further back on the stem.

Plant Bio

Scindapsus sp. Mount Salak

We’ve not been able to discern the origin of this exceptional plant, but we have worked with several Scindapsus experts from around the world to ensure its correct identity. With its thick leaves mottled in multiple shades of silver, it’s sure to be a showstopper in your home.

Like other Scindapsus varieties, Mount Salak can tolerate low light, but doesn’t really thrive there. To thrive, give it a bright spot and grows best within 3 to 4 feet of an unobstructed east- or west-facing window. It prefers average household temperatures and humidity levels (40 percent or more is ideal, but not necessary to be successful with this plant). Offered in our Wick & Grow self-watering system, you can ensure it won’t be over- or underwatered if you periodically refill the reservoir pot as it begins to empty. Keep it away from hot or cold drafts.

Note: This plant may have some natural degree of toxicity and may cause discomfort or illness if ingested. Additionally, exposure to the sap of this plant may cause discomfort to individuals with a sensitivity to it upon contact. Grown for ornamental purposes and not intended for human or animal consumption.
