honestly I agree my pictus exotica is one of my fav plants in my house

Some notes: Neon stripe, ekor merak and treubii milk (I know it as dark silver or silver shield or silver stripe) are gingers. My snake scale looks exactly like your picture... Scindapsus take a long time to establish a good root system, during that time they indeed grow foliage really slowly but once they are established they grow much faster. Silver lady is much more common than the others in rare, at least here in US. Dark argyreus is much darker than regular one but I heard it's just juvenile tricolor (same for dark satin you did not mention here, also heard it's a juvenile tricolor, but can't verify it yet, so far they grow consistent leaves for me). The real Scindapsus you did not mention: silver splash and silver knight (also called sparkling Borneo). I have them and they are legitimate cultivars, Silver Knight is the most silvery of all, it looks like it's covered in glitter :). Silver cloud is the best Scindapsus of all of the ones you have on this list, in my opinion, it grows big leaves like Exotica and the pattern on the leaves is just amazing! Also grows faster than other Scindapsus I have. In Indonesia Silver cloud is sold as Silver Splash, but it's different from the Silver Splash sold in US (as if the whole Scindapsus market wasn't complicated enough). Silver Princess is also amazing! The leaves are glossy and stiffer than Exotica, the contrast between dark and silver is also more pronounced, I've seen it sold as dark Exotica but the leaves are generally narrower. Tricolor is a tricky one, it's suede and the third color is not as pronounced as the pictures usually show, it's one of the more doctored picture-wise. It's also the most finnicky of all the Scindapsus I grow, it needs really high humidity. Thank you for this video! I'm so happy you're getting into Scindapsus, I've been collecting them for around a year now and I can't wait for more content about them :)

@horace many of those are either not scindapsus, have been manipulated to have temporary physical changes, have a virus such as a color break or a mosaic that was intentionally injected, or they're an already known species that has been manipulated into a state of Ontogeny with extremely high levels of certain nutrients

@meghanjohnson1175

Жыл бұрын

It's not a mutant,, it's just a regular manjula. All Epipremnum Aureum cultivars have been tissue cultured without the use of both male and female reproduction cells due to the plants "shy flower" hindrance. In addition, they all have a minimum of 3 different types of cellular and phenotype manipulation. When you increase the number of times you manipulate cells, particularly those developed in such an untraditional way, you also increase the chances of the plant developing constant cellular instability. So these cultivars end up mutating or being incredibly sensitive to Ontogeny changes, over and over. That doesn't make it a different plants. Just like scindapsus. I wish everyone would stop trying to give every slightly different looking plant a new namr!

The Jade Satin can look very different, depending on circumstances. I've moved with mine and the different environment (light, humidity, whatever else) made the new growth look quite different. But also different from what it looked like when I bought it, which also looked different to how it grew in my first apartment. So the very same plant with the exact same genetics can look quite a bit different depending on circumstances to the point where I think saying it looks completely diffrent in real life compared to online doesn't make much sense when the real thing can already look so different from itself.

I didn’t think I would like Jade Satin but it surprised me by being one of my very favorite plants! The deep emerald color and stunning satin finish of the foliage is just stunning. I want some eyeshadow or a maxi dress that exact color and finish.

Anyone else just looking forward to all the different green screen backgrounds we get every video? Just me?

The leaf is smaller, sharper and pointy-teardrop and the colors are more striking/stunning. My Tricolor is absolutely stunning. Very dark leaf color and kind of a "pixelated" pattern of silver and light green. Most of the photos are edited to look better to be honest, but it's one of my favorites! I have a "nearly black" dark jade satin and I think it's way more stunning than a normal form when the light hits it just right.

In america, truebii moonlight is common in costa farm's trending tropicals displays, and the silver variegation is pretty consistent, even moreso than the other common versions in my experience

So happy to see a Scindapsus Rare Plant Index! I went down the rare scindapsus rabbit hole a few months ago and have been collecting different varieties ever since. Some of the plants listed for sale as "scindapsus" are actually varieties of ginger. The "neon stripe" and ekor merak, for example, are definitely ginger. The "neon stripe" is also known as Boesenbergia aurantiaca. I've never seen a plant called a "treubii milk," but going off of the picture, that plant looks like something that I usually see listed as a "scindapsus dark silver". It is also a type of ginger (Scaphochlamys Scintillans) and not a scindapsus. I didn't see it mentioned here, but "Silver Splash" is another somewhat uncommon, but legitimate and very nice-looking scindapsus.

Actually MANY, MANY listed as scindapsus are Actually Scaphochlamys and Homalomena. I'm a botanist so I would know! Many more are scindapsus, but they're simply a different form of a known species, like tattoo. That's a mechanical injury that prevents the leaves from developing highly functional leaf crystal macropatterns (i.e. prevents them from being a more uniformed silver)

My silver ann as wildly differing leaf variations. From almost completely silver to just a scattering. Always beautiful though. The moonlight really does look like that. It’s also a gorgeous plant.

Kaylee: I show it to you so you can see it's not black Also Kaylee: *shows a black plant* ;P

Oh and also, to add to my last comment, I do also have a genuine scindapsus Lucens, which is absolutely beautiful. It is often confused with the Anadendrum Affine, but when I compare the 2 side by side, I'd recognize the actual Lucens any day. I find the Ana. Affine is very smooth and veiny, the actual Lucens doesn't have super prominent veins, or at least mine doesn't, and they appear to have very slight bumps in their leaves. I will say the Ana. Affine is a beautiful plant too, love the coloring and veins! Ashame that one is often sold as the other. Confusing to some buyers :(

Kudos to you for tackling this. From what I can tell NO ONE can agree on what is and is not a Scindapsus. 😒 1. Treubii Moonlight is just as beautiful in pictures as it is in real life. In my experience, it does easily get leaf damage from too strong of light. Also Costa Farms has sold this as "Sterling Silver Scindapsus" in the US recently. 2. Pictures do not do Terubii Dark Form justice. It is a STUNNER but it grows PAINFULLY slow. They are difficult to find in the US (at least where I live), but it is 100% worth it to invest in a more mature plant vs. a cutting (that thing will stay tiny forever).

Treubii dark doesn't grow too slow for me. It likes PON and it pushes new leaves reasonably fast (haven't counted but since I got my cutting it grew about 10 inches in 6 months. I know it seems slow but some Scindapsus can grow one leaf during similar timeframe :) I think Treubii dark is very sensitive to rot and Pon really helps with the issues.

Super cute though. Treubii moonlight is WAY more common in the US and is very inexpensive. I bought a full 6” pot for $20 last year. I really like reunion dark form but it is harder to find here and is more expensive. They’re both glossy and moonlight is very silvery and cute! Hederaceus is actually nicknamed “Blue Satin” and not “Silver” here. It’s not silvery in the slightest. The leaves look to be more waxy to me but I don’t own one. Very cute though and would love to own it. I own a Tattoo and it’s very prone to rot. Not a big fan, really underwhelming. Trading mine away actually. Jade Satin looks really ugly in the pictures, but it’s way better in person! Very satiny and soft feel. I love mine and highly recommend you look at it in person before making a final judgement. Tricolor is very underwhelming in person. I have a few friends who own it and it doesn’t live up to the hype. It is a real thing though! Hope you do an update index soon! Love what you do!

Tattoo is simply scindapsus pictus argyreus large form, with an induced mechanical injury that prevents the leaves from developing highly functional leaf crystal macropatterns. So the microscopic crystals that reflect light, making species of this genus appear to have silver variegation, don't function as they normally would and it results in a more splotchy appearance. Every specimen we have studied in the lab eventually begins looking like ab exotica. Also, tri color is injected with chemicals to produce unnatural pigments and it fades within 1-5 years

I'm surprised you didn't mention the silver splash. I have a plant and love it. Silvery Ann is still one of my faves.

Moonlight looks just as good in person 💖 More of a glossy finish. Satin color but a smooth leathery leaf if that makes sense

The Scindapus Moonlight Treubii is a gorgeous plant i just got mine a month ago after seeing it online in plant videos. In person is gorgeous. Is not in a satin finished. I do find they are thirsty plants once you water them the leaves perk back up.

Hi from the Philippines! Here, the most common Scindapsus varieties are Exotica, Argyraeous, Silver Lady, Silvery Anne, Treubuii Moonlight and Dark Form. We also have a Jade Satin Dark Form which I believe is a legit variety. Agree though with your point that the other 'varieties' could possibly be 'mutations' or sport versions of the main ones. For example, we have Silver Splash, Trebie, Sumatera, which I think are versions of Exotica, though when I see them side by side, I do notice some differences. Again to your point, Scindapsus in general are really hard to tell apart 😅 Just wanted to say too that I really appreciate your reminder not to buy a plant just because it's rare because it won't complete you. Yes to buying a plant coz you love it 💚 As always, looking forward to your videos! Thank you Kaylee!

Both the ekor merak & Cat’s eye is Scaphochlamys, a family of the ginger plants, I heard people mistaken it for Scindapsus because it resembles treubii. Also, because it’s easier to market it as Scindapsus, a plant people are more familiar with. But they really are a very nice plant, sort of like a Jewel orchid kind of setting fits them very well; they also produce a cute flower shaped like an orchid too, they grow like kaempferia/calathea like most ginger houseplants does. Hope to see more people falling in love with this plant!

What a great list. The best takeaway was the wisdom at the end ❤️

I think you might like the jade dark form. It's wild how different availability is for each area. In central Illinois, the treubii is the most commonly found in the last 9 months or so because of big box stores. It's everywhere. Dark form is more uncommon but I think it will pop up there soon. Silvery Anne can have less silver than argyraeus because not all are crusted nicely with silver. (A light thing maybe?) It's easier for me to tell by the uneveness of the pattern dispersement. Silvery Anne is less even. Silver Lady is one of my favorites! With the right lighting it gets dark and sparkly at night. I'd never heard of the treubii milk. Underwhelming for me. Black mamba & mayari are still 😍. And basically everything you mentioned after except that last one. 🤣 Thanks so much for this Rare Plant Index!

Thank you for this video. I love silver plants and scindapsus. I’m in love with the picus tricolor.

I love scindapsus it was the first family I considered collecting when I first started out. I actually have a true argy dark form and can conform that the leaves are extremely darker than regular argy and come in more round. The specks in the middle aren't as contrasting as the regular argy, but they pair well with the black and almost look like a dark gray against the dark leaves.

I'm in the western part of the US and I've seen a lot of treubii moonlights at Home Depot and Lowes over the past couple months for about $26 for a 6 inch plant with a basic decorative planter.

Yay! I was so excited for this! Thank you for putting it together! Cleared up a lot for me. Guess my Silvery Ann is more likely the first one. Treubii moonlight looks satiny and almost a little blue to me in person, just like in that picture.

There is another Scindapsus treubii I have seen on Etsy that is basically the Dark Form with a thick silver stripe on either side of the midrib that was labeled “Dark Silver”. Based on the photos, it does look like it could be legit. Fascinating list! I have loved Scindapsus, but find them actually really difficult to care for in terms of watering for me. Some are fast growing and others are not. My treubii dark form has put out one leaf in the last 6 months.

Costa Farms has been dropping the Moonlight all over the place in the US. I got one at Target, but was disappointed bc it had several barely rooted cuttings -that of course died soon after purchase. Seems to be a running theme with things from Costa.

Love this!! I personally thought jades were so boring until my sister bought me one and I love it. You didn't mention it but my silver splash grows SO FAST it's wild. 10/10 recommend that one!

I have the silver lady and it’s gorgeous!!! It grows a little differently and is much more contrasted in green/silver. Green is more muted on exotica. Silver lady you’ll KNOW you have it.

I gotta say one thing, I own a lot of scindapsis. I have platinum, silver hero, silver lady, splash, etc. Silver Lady is STUNNING next to any other silver marked scindapsis. When I got it in, I fell in love. It has crisp borders on all the silver and silver lady always has a complete silver edge to the leaf. The leaf shape is one of my favorite parts, a delicate sort of shape almost like a heart shaped comma. It really does look like each leaf is a stylized drawing of itself. My exotica has leaves nearly the size of my face, my silver lady is the size of my palm. Its really perfectly named, I can't recommend it enough! Also Jade Satin is beautiful in person, it may surprise you. It has the leaf texture of platinum or silver hero. It reflects almost nothing, very matte and soft in terms of light absorption.

The moonlight really is just as beautiful as in the picture hahaha I find it a bit quirky to grow though... quite honestly they are all just a tad more tricky to get looking nice and sexy than your garden center heart leaf philodendron

Great list to start! There's a few more variegated ones too like the variegated jade satin, variegated treubii moonlight, and treubii mint. I have 16 actual varieties myself and 5 I'd consider NOIDs. I find that the ones i have in my grow tent grow quickly because of the extra humidity v. the ones that are mounted on my walls to trail. Curious to see if any new interesting ones pop up.

Haha!! Most def the no bullshit family!! I loved that!! Kaylee, you are so amazing and inspiring and I just love you to pieces!! Girlfriend, keep being you and doing you!! It looks amazing in you!! Yes maam!! I admire the hell outta ya!! Your my plant bff!!

Oh I was SO excited for this video, I loooove scindapsus. I just got a small 1 leaf black mamba/bentol, a new leaf has come out from it and it looks like a silvery anne (or another type with silver flecks), the juvenile leaves look nothing like the mature ones! It is quite woody as you mentioned, I have noticed that the roots haven't grown out of the woody part at the bottom where it was cut...but instead out of the back (aerial roots) which is odd, I just have it laying on a bed of spag moss and it's loving that 😂 I also have a "scindapsus" cat eye/neon stripe...it's quite juvenile and small so it hasn't vined for me yet, not sure if it will or not but time will tell! It'd be awesome if it would vine one day :) I personally don't believe it is actually scindapsus purely based on the leaf shape...the leaves on every other scindapsus I own are all the same curved asymmetrical shape and thats pretty unique to scindapsus. But regardless it is a very cool.plant...whatever it is 😂

Thank you for your comments at the end of the video! I appreciate the sentiment about buying plants that you love instead of what's trending at the moment. :)

Thank you for this one!!!! Perfect timing!!

Love the makeup and hair kaylee, you look gorgeous :)

WOW ! So many scindapsus! Love the silvery ann.

Loved your video and the way it ended/ final comments 💚 Blessings to you .

Most, if not all, scindapsus actually will shingle in the right conditions, including the normally available ones. The only one I'm not sure about is Treubii since the growth structure is a little different

I've seen shingling Exotica, it looks really pretty!

I've never clicked a video on YT this fast. The moment i saw a new rare plant index i got excited hahaha

Yes! The Silver Treubii looks better in photos🤣🤣 They are super common in my area. I've never seen a truebii dark form in person.

If I buy very rare plants, I‘ll only buy them if I also like them. I would never buy a plant just because it‘s rare, especially if I think it‘s ugly. That being said I‘ve just ordered an Alocasia Jacklyn and a philodendron snowdrif baby and am really excited :)

Going to buy a Jacklyn next week. Can't wait. It looks so different. Reminds me of dinosaurs. Same with the Alocasia Dragon Scale. Both so different and cool

@@leas.8603 Exactly. Like it's from the stone age or something. It's expensive but worth it I believe :)

Just wanted to say that on my treubii Moonlight, the leaves are assorted shapes and sizes. Some are rounded, some are more pointed, some are symmetrical, and others have a leaves where one side is slightly smaller than the other...I can't think of the term for it right now. There are definitely inconsistencies in leaf shape among the treubii, even on the same plant. Also, this is just my unscientific speculation, but I expect phylogenetic analysis into Scindapsus would reveal some unexpected surprises.

I got a real Scindapsus Lucens and an Anadendrum Affine, which is the plant depicted in your video. In person you can see and feel the differences, like the leave structure, thickness and sheen. Often people who are selling the Anadendrum Affine as Lucens wet the leaves, it makes it harder to differentiate them. The rea Lucens is very shiny, doesn't have the satin or matte shine to their leaves. I got it as a rooted cutting with 1 leave for about 70$ in germany, where I live. I like both, but am a Scindapsus fan, so I kind of regret that I got fooled by the other seller, where I got the Anadendrum from.

Love this video, thanks Kaylee 🤍

Photo searches came up with neon/cats eye being a type of ginger even though every Indo seller on Etsy sells it as a scindapsus. The type Scaphochlamys came up (maybe this is asian name for gingers?). Also I have a Lucens (or other name) and have found it to be surprisingly difficult.

That's the scientific Latin name for ginger. Ginger is a cultivar name. And it's not a ginger, its Homalomena

Wow, the Jade Satin is gorgeous, it's hard to find. I have the treubii moonlight, the argyraeus, the silver Ann and the exotica. The Jade Satin is gorgeous, the moonlight is beautiful. I think you would find the Jade Satin amazing.

The tri color is my personal holy grail. Another one I had a clipping of that melted on me. It's totally worth it! I want another one!

You didn't compare the exotic and the silver lady 😭 no photo came up

Great informations, thank u ellen!

Love this video!! Yes to another rare plant index. The treubii moonlight is satin in my opinion :) Also the silver lady leaf shape is narrower and pointier than the exotica which is more wide/round.

The Cat eye is actually in the ginger family. I bought one just because I was curious. Once I saw the roots, and growth - It’s clearly not a scindapsus. The roots look like ginger. I did some research and Im almost certain it’s in the Zingiberaceae family. Still a cool plant though. The Jade Scindapsus in person is gorgeous. I thought the same until I saw one, but it has this gorgeous satin matte finish on the leaves. And totally agree that some of the “varieties” for sale seem like BS. I own most of these and especially on the silver variation the leaves to just vary. I could easily take a specific cutting on my exotica and sell it as variety going for a much higher price.

Do they do well indoors? (The ginger one)

@@gabrielpatten6939 I’m still figuring it out to be honest. I’ve had it about two months. So far I found it does better outside of my greenhouse, medium light. The leaves tend to damage similar to the way Calathea do unless in perfect conditions.

Treubii Moonlight is JUST AS AMAZING in person. My bff gave me hers last year and it's been on my fridge in the west facing kitchen all winter. I LOVE IT!!! The leaves are muted green/silver and thick and just beautiful!!! It grown several new leaves over the winter too, so idk about it being a slow growing as it's more common Silvery Anne, Exotica and Pictus

Scindapsus are one of my favorite genus’s I keep! They are very forgiving with watering and always are keen to tell you when they need a drink. IME scindapsus treubii moonlight grow SO slow compared to my others. But they are readily found in box stores in the USA for around $20 medium sized pot. Never see the dark form in my area though (I’m in FL)

Ahhhhh I was sitting and waiting for this!!

I wish the jade satin was more common, it's super rare where I live and I'm obsessed with it. Just something about the green and velvet just does it for me.

Costa released the truebii in the US, and it’s one scindapsis that doesn’t run. It’s quite matte if a finish

I have the neon stripe and it doesn't feel like a scindapsus tbh, but I genuinely don't know. It grows more like a Homalomena in my opinion, and the new growth looks like Calathea 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️ I have Lucens as well, not a Scindapsus, VERY thristy, delicate and hard to import. It pretty much lives in my prop box or it'll die 😂

Can you talk about care for the neon stripe? I can’t find any care tips on the internet

Looove this one, thank you!

Great video! I L💜VE my scindapsus plants 🪴.

The best way to tell between anadendrum affine and lucens is lucens doesn't have as dark of veining as the anadendrum does. It's also more of a tealish silver color compared to the anadendrum that is a blueish silver. It also has a more pillowy leaf texture.

Very very very VERY glad to have this video - scindapsus sooooo underrated! Treubii (both moonlite n dark form) are actually my 1st scindapsus bfr getting the pictus ... they are nice and for me (in SEA) easier to grow, maintain. Dark form yes noyt dark dark like ZZ raven but ok, glossy wax more so than moonlight. Jade satin is actually hard to find in SG - so mmm... Treubii are smooth (wax like) then pictus Got my exotia pictus from National Park SG - they are my all time FAV - the sliver, the leaves - to die! For me they are precious n RARE :) yes, scindapsus - for me: they are slower to grow n can be a bit fussy w water feeds. once settled, they r sturdy. love love love them!

Thanks for showing us all the different scindapus. Some are very hard too tell the difference. 💚

Just got a trubii moonlight cutting, definitely doesn’t look like the pictures, but of course I only have a few brand new baby leaves. Hopefully as it matures it will become more silver like the pics!

Trubii moonlight is super common in the US. I really want to make a mixed pot of it plus trubii dark form and Im currently having little luck finding dark form. When I’ve seen it available it was quite a bit more expensive than moonlight as well.

My treubii moonlight from Costa is definitely this pretty in person. I'm consistently impressed at how silver it stays, even in slightly lower light. Very nice hardy plant.
