Description
Texture you can feel. The Scindapsus sp. 'Snake Scale' is a collector's dream, famous for its incredible "embossed" foliage. Unlike standard Scindapsus varieties, the leaves of this species feature a raised, bumpy surface that mimics the skin of a reptile.
As this plant matures and climbs, the leaves become larger and the "scale" pattern becomes even more pronounced. It is a stunning example of how diverse and structural foliage can be.
Why add this to your collection?
-
Unique Tactile Foliage: The raised venation creates a 3D texture rarely seen in other Aroids.
-
Shingling Potential: When given a flat board or moss pole, this species loves to climb and lay its leaves flat, accentuating the scale pattern.
-
Hard-to-Find Species: An uncommon find in local US/EU nurseries, sourced directly from its native tropical climate.
