Suggestions on what’s up with this plant? I got it in October 2023 and since then have lost a lot of leaves/vines and I’m down to only these. I just repotted it last week (along with all of my other plants because I had horrible fungus gnats and none of the methods were working.) Since then gnats are gone. It got a fresh watering once it was repotted. I added a before photo from October as well. Thanks!
It’s a scindapsus of some kind! They are also sometimes called satin pothos. Not sure about the care on these as it’s one of the few I haven’t managed to keep alive. I know they do like more humidity.
1 mi piace Yes it’s a satin pothos/scindapsus! I do have a humidifier by this plant and some others as it’s been dry this winter! Humidifier is on about 8-10 hours a day and off at night.

what soil do you have for it?
1 mi piace It’s in Tropical soil and I added perlite for extra drainage.
1 mi piace you don’t want that. with pothos they love water and humidity. use normal potting soil and water it once a week.
1 mi piace Ohhh. Ok. I went with what the app suggested but will change it up 👌🏼

Just watering based on a schedule can kill your plants from overwatering. You have to check if the soil is completely dry before watering these plants.
1 mi piaceSatin pothos seem to be pretty easy to care for.. I honestly haven’t ever had it near a humidifier and it’s been thriving. It has been doing well in partial sun/lower light. It’s currently being bottom watered 🙂
I wish mine would take off like this! I bottom water when soil is dry.

How often are you watering it? The leaves look dry in after picture. They will curl up like that when they are thirsty.
1 mi piace Last watered on Thursday. I bottom water.
0 Mi piace Okay. Tropical soil mix is fine too. I have a similar mix for my Scindapsus Exotica. Potting soil + chunky perlite + worm castings. How much light is the plant getting?
