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.

  • 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

  • Family: Araceae

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.

The Island Of Death
Format: Hardcover
On August 7th, 1942, American Marines stormed ashore on Guadalcanal. What lay before them was a six-month odyssey of fighting against the best of what the Japanese had to offer. In this fine book, author Joseph Wheelan describes the battle that turned the tide in the Pacific War. The Japanese had started construction of an airfield on Guadalcanal. If completed, Japanese aircraft would be able to harass American convoys and threaten Australia. The Americans seized the airfield and eventually, planes from the Cactus Air Force began attacking the Japanese. Throughout the book, the reader learns about all phases of the Guadalcanal campaign, including the battles of Alligator Creek and Bloody Ridge. On the sea, the Americans and Japanese slugged it out at Savo Island, as well as the great naval battles of November, 1942. Names such as Chesty Puller, John Baslone, "Archie" Vandegrift, Joe Foss, and "Bull" Halsey became household names in the United States. Each side lost many men, ships, and planes, but the tenacity and, finally, the industrial might and the ability to rapidly replace losses, led the Americans to victory. Never again would the Japanese regain the offensive in the Pacific War. "Midnight in the Pacific" is a very good book, and the author has done a good job of describing all of the main points of the battle. Each chapter is broken down into a single month's worth of action, and the narrative is well-written. Highly recommended.

Good Narrative History
Format: Hardcover
The account of the Guadalcanal campaign was well-written. It has several good maps but it falls short with the two carrier battles associated with the action. There should have detailed maps for the Battle of the Eastern Solomons and the Battle of the Santa Cruz Islands. Aside from this shortcoming, the book provides an excellent, readable history of a crucial confrontation between the US and Japan.

A Very Thorough Accounting of One of the Most Savage Battles of World War 2
Format: Kindle
My father served in the United States Marine Corps during World War 2 and fought in the first offensive battle by the US during the war, the battle for the island of Guadalcanal. He was seriously wounded there and evacuated back to the states where he spent a year in a naval hospital. As a result, I have read many of the books about this battle. This book was particularly interesting because the author described the battle from the perspective of both the allied forces and the Japanese, drawing from historical records and other books. It was a very thorough accounting and demonstrated what a monstrous battle this was. I only wish my father were still alive so that I could have discussed it with him. His experience at Guadalcanal was not something he would often talk about, but considering savagery of what he saw and endured, I understand. If you are interested in Guadalcanal, I recommend this book.

Excellent book on the Campaign!
Format: Hardcover
I highly recommend this book! I have read many books on the Guadalcanal Campaign and I rate this one at the top. It has just the right blend of stragity and personal accounts to keep the story interesting. It is actually a real page-turner, which is rare for a non-fiction work. Wheelan writes in a style that reminds me of the books I read in my teens by Cornelius Ryan and John Toland, which captured my interest in WWII and history. The book jumps right into the invasion, no multiple chapters concerning the planning and build up, but this info is covered later. All phases of this campaign are covered; ground, air and sea. The maps are okay. There are never enough. The author skims over much of the U. S. Army battles after the Marines are relieved, but that seems to be a trend in all of the books on Guadalcanal that I have read. Overall, this is an excellent book for those who want to learn about the campaign and those who need a re-fresher after reading Starvation Island and Guadalcanal by Frank in years past.

Most complete coverage of Guadalcanal I have read.
Format: Kindle
I have read dozens of WWII books and many touched on the Guadalcanal Battle. I thoroughly enjoyed The Big E and its involvement in the battle. Thas book covered the entire conflict from start to finish. Frankly, I hated to see the book end. The courage and tenacity of all those involved was amazing. To understand the miserable conditions in the area where these men fought was inspiring. To see this battle through the eyes of the American forces and Japanese forces was an added bonus. Thank you for a great read!!!
