Schismatoglottis Wallichii have leaves that are oblong in shape, and almost form a heart shape at their centre. The pattern on each leaf resembles the flowing wrinkles and patterns of a bedsheet, or a flying flag.

They are native to Thailand, Borneo, and Malaysia, growing on the floor under the jungle canopy. In the jungle the receive bright indirect light. They are found in areas with soil that gets wet, but dries quicker.

In this article we'll show you how to care for a Schismatoglottis Wallichii, including what soil and humidity it prefers and whether it's suitable for pets.

Schismatoglottis Wallichii Care

Schismatoglottis Wallichii, like other indoor house plants, come from lush forests and jungles. When bringing them into our homes, we must recreate the living conditions naturally found in the jungle.

The following article explains how to keep a Schismatoglottis Wallichii plant healthy for years to come.

Schismatoglottis Wallichii sun requirements

Schismatoglottis Wallichii prefer bright indirect sunlight. For optimal growth, place them 2 to 3 feet from a south-facing window. They will receive adequate sunlight to grow healthy large. While they can tolerate low light, they will grow faster if provided with more light.

If at all possible, keep your Schismatoglottis Wallichii in a warm location as well. The higher temperature will produce more humidity. We try to replicate the warmth of the countries where this plant originates.

Schismatoglottis Wallichii water needs

Between watering, it's better to let them dry out completely. When the soil begins to pull away from the container's sides the moisture in the soil has nearly completely evaporated.

 


Check for moisture by pressing your finger into the soil about one inch. If your finger is dry and there's no soil sticking to it, then you an water your plant again. When you lift the pot up it should feel light, and that's another sign that you can give the plant a good soak.

During the summer we tend to water more frequently as the plant is exposed to considerably more sunlight. The summer sun will help your Schismatoglottis Wallichii grow at a quicker rate, so it will use of more water. In the winter, the plant sees overcast days more often, so watering every-other week will be common, but check the soil to see how your plant is progressing.

Soil requirements

Your Schismatoglottis Wallichii will establish larger and stronger roots if you use a well-draining potting mix from any local garden supply shop. Although most potting mixes contain perlite, adding a few extra handfuls of perlite can help your soil retain and distribute moisture.


We prefer fertilizing plants using an all-natural plant fertilizer. Liqui-dirt is diluted and is safe to use during every watering.

Humidity requirements

A Schismatoglottis Wallichii will grow well in many household conditions. House humidity in Canada is usually in the range of 30% to 40%, and your plant will adjust to these humiidty  levels easily.

Schismatoglottis Wallichii are tropical plants, so adding extra humidity from time-to-time is great. Adding plants to a bathroom is very common, and it will love the additional humidity from your hot baths and showers.

Moving your plant around the house is something you need to ponder, and we have a quick video here on that topic.

How to Propagate a Schismatoglottis Wallichii

Schismatoglottis Wallichii can be easily propagated, and process is not hard at all. Anyone can do it. It is similar for variety of other tropical house plants.

Soil Propagation Method

When you're ready to propagate, fill a growers pot (or plastic cup) with the soil you like (please read about soil requirements above).

Cut a piece of your Schismatoglottis Wallichii below a node on a branch. The node is what will put out the new roots.

Place the cut piece in the soil immediately and add water. When growing new roots, the soil must be kept moist. Keep it more wet than you normally want for this plant. The water will stimulate new roots and growth in the plant.

As the roots grow, the Schismatoglottis Wallichii will grow into a whole new plant.

Water Propagation Method

Fill a small jar or cup with clean filtered water. Try not to use city water from the tap. City waters contains chlorine, which is safe for humans, but not new plants.

Cut your Schismatoglottis Wallichii below a node on a branch. This node is what will put out new roots.

Place the cut area in the water right away. After a few weeks you will see that it has put out roots. You can now transfer your plant to pot with soil.

Schismatoglottis Wallichii Varieties

There are over 22 varieties of Schismatoglottis plants. As with most house plants, each variety has slight changes to its foliage.

To see a different variation of Schismatoglottis, check out the Schismatoglottis Motleyana. The leaves of the Motleyana have a similar shape, but the lighter colour stays to the inside of each leaf.

Pest Control with a Schismatoglottis Wallichii

Are Schismatoglottis Wallichii Plants Pet Friendly?

This is not a pet friendly plant.

We hope that plants are kept out of reach of pets and children. Plants cause irritation in your furry friends' mouth. The irritation should deter them from eating again (what nature intended), but keeping them out of reach is always the best idea, as higher levels of ingestion can be dangerous.

This Timex Ironman lives up to its name
Color: Black/Digital Gray/Black
Timex Ironman watches have been with me for a decade. This particular one I just ordered as a backup for the same one that I have had for seven years (and still works perfectly). I don't know why I ordered a backup except that I love it so much that I couldn't fathom the idea that Timex might discontinue this model. Why do I love it so much? Because it is functional in many ways. Aside from its durability, reliability and the fact that it fits on my wrist so comfortably, it is easy to read and extremely useful for tasks that need countdown alarms as well as regular timers (it has three which you can set). Since I gave up "fashionable" watches years ago in favor of practical, easy to read, multifunctional devises I found this Timex the best of all the other brands that I have tried in this category. Years ago, President Bill Clinton, who jogged regularly, was heavily chastised for wearing a very functional Timex Ironman watch in the Oval Office instead of what the professional politicians considered appropriate for a President. It was then that I realized how important it was for a person to wear a watch that they loved, and that was functional for them. At that point in time I had many other watches that I didn't jettison until later when I realized that I need only wear the watch that I loved and was useful to me. I still have another watch that I saved for "appropriate" times out but have only worn it once. The rest of the time my Timex Ironman stays on my wrist wherever I go.

A very comfy, pleasant casual sports watch- especially good for training
Color: Black/Digital Gray/Silver-Tone, Color: Black/Digital Gray/Silver-Tone
The Ironman series of watches has been around for about 40 years now, and with good reason. The current iteration doesn't disappoint. It's light weight, easy-to-read, has a good backlight, offers simple operation, great buttons, a decently loud chime, and is a feature rich watch. I purchased this one on a lark; it was sold as "used- very good" from an Amazon warehouse for $20. The Timex packaging/ box was damaged, but the watch itself was new, wrapped and seemed unused. Since I do not wear an item's packaging, I always look for such items when shopping on Amazon, as it can save quite a bit. In this case it was $12 less expensive, or about 1/3 less costly. I have owned a digital watch for over 40 years; from left to right in the photo- my 1980 Seiko (owned since new), my daily Casio, which has solar and atomic clock radio signal time setting, and the Ironman for you to compare size. Owning a number of Casio digital watches, I was pleasantly surprised by the comfort and ease of use of this Timex Ironman. The Ironman does feel somewhat more "plasticky" that some Casio watches I have, which may influence some buyers. But once you get past that feel, if you like the look of the watch, it's a great offering, especially at a $20 price point. The on the Ironman, a chronograph, a countdown timer, a second time zone, three alarms, 30 lap records, occasion reminders , and a perpetual calendar make it comparable, or better than many of the similarly priced Casio offerings. The Ironman does not feel quite as substantial as some of the lower cost G-Shock offerings I have tried, but is at least as comfy on my 7 1/2 inch wrist. Water resistance seems fine at 100 meters, and the recessed plastic crystal should avoid most scratches. The features should be very useful for those who do not want to wear a smartwatch for training. I hope this review has been helpful.

Almost the perfect watch
Color: Black/Blue
I have owned three earlier models of these things going back to the days when I actually ran road races. They are brilliant pieces of work. My only complaint of them was that the start/stop/split button(s)--there were two on the older models--were too small. Well, apparently Timex listens and the two small buttons are now combined into one larger one. Probably this was done years ago but I'm only now getting back into road work, so now I get to discover it. The perfect watch? Almost. I especially like this model as my eyes are not what they used to be and the oversized face makes it easier to read. The downside to this is that it also makes the crystal easier to scratch. That's always been an issue, but I can live with it. No, the real problem with this product is, was, and apparently ever shall be, the band. Now, it could be worse, it could be a resin band (like the old ones) that will crack and break within a couple of years, but no, this is a nylon and velcro wrap style which should be just dandy, but for three glitches: 1. it's too short 2. it's too narrow (gee whiz, Timex designers, it's an oversized watch, why not a matching oversized band?) and 3. it's still resin where it attaches to the actual watch. Now, I imagine it's probably less prone to breakage in how it's implemented, but if you should choose to replace it, I can see no obvious way of removing it short of cutting it off. Really? But these are minor complaints. I doubt it would be comfortable on anyone whose wrists are much bigger than my own, but replacement bands are everywhere, and this watch will keep time with style and it's brilliant at splits. Heck, it even functions admirably as a backup for my expensive stopwatches at our regular short track stock car events. For my money (and did I mention the price is wonderful?) the Ironman is still the best at what it does, and for what it can do.

Good hard use watch.
Color: Black/Silver-Tone
Review Calibration: 3 stars means it works as advertised, nothing special during use, and no amazing features. Higher stars mean better-than-expected performance and features. This is 5 stars because it is my favorite work/hard-use watch. I have been wearing one for years, and like all Timex watches, it can take a beating. I have to replace it when the band's ears get so damaged that they won't hold the band on. This has more to do with the plastic's lifespan than with a design issue. I am hard on watches. This watch normally lasts ne 7-10 years between replacements.
