Scindapsus treubii ‘Moonlight’ — A Rare Silver Beauty for Collectors

Moonlight Scindapsus (Scindapsus treubii 'Moonlight') is a true collector’s gem, admired for its thick, shimmering silver leaves and elegant growth pattern. Native to the tropical rainforests of Indonesia and Borneo, this slow-growing species stands apart from the more common Scindapsus pictus with its solid, satin-like foliage and refined silhouette.

Each leaf reflects a subtle metallic glow that brightens any plant shelf or hanging display. Its compact form makes it ideal for small spaces, while its trailing habit shines on trellises or moss poles. A must-have for anyone who appreciates understated botanical luxury.


Why Collectors Love the Moonlight Scindapsus

  • Striking, smooth silver foliage with a soft metallic sheen
  • Highly sought after and rarely available in larger sizes
  • Slow, compact growth creates dense, sculptural foliage
  • Pairs beautifully with variegated Scindapsus pictus types such as ‘Exotica’ and ‘Silvery Ann’

Plant Profile

  • Botanical Name: Scindapsus treubii ‘Moonlight’
  • Common Names: Moonlight Scindapsus, Sterling Silver Scindapsus
  • Family: Araceae
  • Origin: Indonesia & Borneo

Care Tips

Light

Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its silvery glow. It will tolerate medium light, though the leaves may appear darker and growth will slow slightly.

Water

Allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry between waterings. Good drainage is essential—avoid letting the roots sit in water to prevent rot.

Humidity & Temperature

This tropical species thrives in humidity levels of 60% or higher. Keep it comfortable between 65–75°F and away from cold drafts or heat vents.

Soil

Use a chunky, well-draining aroid mix—something with peat moss, perlite, and orchid bark works perfectly. This blend keeps roots aerated and reduces overwatering risks.

Feeding

During the active growing season (spring through summer), feed monthly with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength.

Growth Habit

Expect a slow but steady vining growth, reaching up to 3 feet over time. Perfect for hanging baskets or vertical climbing on a moss pole.


For the Passionate Plant Collector

The Moonlight Scindapsus adds rare silver tones to any collection and complements other species like Scindapsus pictus ‘Argyraeus’ or Exotica. Its luminous foliage catches light beautifully and offers a sleek contrast to green or variegated varieties.


Pest & Toxicity Notes

  • Generally resistant to pests but may occasionally attract mealybugs or spider mites—wipe leaves regularly to prevent buildup.
  • Toxic if ingested by pets or humans, so display out of reach of curious companions.

Bring Home the Silver Moonlight

Elegant, rare, and remarkably easy to maintain, the Moonlight Scindapsus deserves a place in every collector’s lineup. Add one to your home and enjoy the calm, silvery glow it brings to your indoor garden.


Scindapsus treubii ‘Moonlight’ FAQ

Is Scindapsus ‘Moonlight’ the same as Pothos?

They’re close cousins but not the same. While both are in the Araceae family, Scindapsus treubii ‘Moonlight’ has thicker, satin-silver leaves and a slower growth rate than Epipremnum aureum (Pothos). It’s often mistaken for Pothos due to its vining habit, but the texture and coloration are distinct.

Why are my Moonlight Scindapsus leaves turning green?

Insufficient light can reduce the silver overlay, causing leaves to look greener. Move your plant to bright, indirect light to restore its metallic sheen. Avoid direct sun, which can scorch foliage.

How fast does Scindapsus ‘Moonlight’ grow?

It’s a slow grower. Expect compact, steady growth rather than long vines. In warm temps, good humidity, and bright light, new leaves unfurl every few weeks in spring/summer.

Can I propagate my Moonlight Scindapsus?

Yes. Take a cutting with at least one node, then root in water or a chunky, well-draining mix. Keep humidity high and light bright. Growth is patient, not fast.

What soil mix works best?

A chunky aroid blend: peat or coco coir + perlite + orchid bark. This keeps roots aerated and reduces overwatering risk.

Is Scindapsus ‘Moonlight’ pet-safe?

No. It’s toxic if ingested by pets or humans. Display out of reach of curious companions.

What is NOT to love about Lynda Barry?
Format: Paperback
I’ve been reading Lynda Barry since the 80s and am currently at work on a graphic novel, that I’m writing and illustrating. I have always believed in learning from the best and Barry has always been a favorite, from the creativity, recall and connections she makes with her work as well as with me (and I assume her other readers as well). This book delves into the connections of words and images, how to conjure and connect, especially with the whole creative vibe. She works with young people and the pipeline to that cerebral communication is appreciated and thought provoking as well, as my work will be geared to a younger audience. This is for anyone who interested in the process of sequential art, creating comics, characters, connecting with creative elements, it’s also a visually stunning book (again, the nerd in me, loved all the cross-references with the visual and other, using calligraphic and other historic, formal art elements along with the more personal character, visual creations and exercises. Thought-provoking and image inducing, indeed!

Lynda Barry is Awesome
Format: Kindle
This book is fantastic if you want to make comics by yourself or with a classroom. Barry packs in loads of experience teaching and making art. Her style of drawing is simple and straight forward. She uses a great method that empowers the reader to make art and share it. I want to be half the teacher Barry is.

This! Book! Rocks!
Format: Paperback
If you enjoy laughing, having fun with your friends and family, and doing cool stuff, you will love Lynda Barry's Making Comics. This is a thoughtful and complete recap of her live class at the University of Wisconsin, includes much of her substantial thought and philosophy on the role of image making in human evolution, and is full of her (and her students') amazing artwork; but it's also full of excessively FUN drawing exercises that are wonderful for sucky drawers as well as professional artists. We dig this book so bad!!! Best gift I've given myself in a million years!!!!!!!!!!!! Maybe I had a little bit forgotten how much I! Love! Lynda! Barry!!!!! So if you wish you could go move to Wisconsin and take her class like I do, instead just save the planet the extra greenhouse gases and get this book instead and do the class at your kitchen table with your friends!!! Maybe also order it from your local groovy independent bookstore so you can stick it to the man!!!

Highly comical
Format: Paperback
This book is simply amazing. I have stopped, wondering about comics and begun mastering them. The author is always amazing. I’ve read most of her work and I can hardly highly recommend them. especially her novel Cruddy it was the best!
