Scindapsus Gunung ‘Mount Salak’

Scindapsus Gunung ‘Mount Salak’

Scindapsus Gunung ‘Mount Salak’ is a rare and highly desirable Scindapsus cultivar named after Mount Salak in Indonesia. It is admired for its richly textured, deep green foliage, which often displays subtle mottling and a softly matte or velvety finish. As the plant matures, the leaves may increase in size and definition, giving it a refined, collector-grade appearance that stands apart from more common Scindapsus varieties.

Native to tropical forest environments, this Scindapsus grows as a climbing or trailing aroid and performs exceptionally well when given support such as a moss pole or allowed to trail naturally. Its understated coloration paired with unique texture makes it especially appealing to plant lovers drawn to rare species with quiet but distinctive character.

Sun Requirements ▾

Bright, indirect light is ideal for Scindapsus Gunung ‘Mount Salak’. Adequate light supports healthy growth and maintains leaf texture, while direct sunlight should be avoided as it can scorch the foliage. Lower light conditions may result in slower growth and less pronounced leaf characteristics. A bright room with filtered light provides the best balance.

Watering Instructions ▾

Watering should be done when the top portion of the soil begins to dry out. Scindapsus Gunung ‘Mount Salak’ prefers evenly moist soil but does not tolerate waterlogged conditions. Overwatering can lead to root rot, while allowing the soil to dry out completely may slow growth or cause leaf stress. Watering frequency should be reduced slightly during the winter months when growth naturally slows.

Care Tips ▾

Scindapsus Gunung ‘Mount Salak’ prefers a warm, stable environment with moderate to higher humidity and good air circulation. It performs best in a well-draining aroid soil mix that retains some moisture while allowing excess water to pass freely. Providing vertical support can encourage stronger growth and larger leaf development. Cold drafts, sudden temperature changes, and compacted soil should be avoided to prevent stress.
