Know before you buy
No, this plant is not pet-safe. It is best kept in a location that is inaccessible to cats and dogs.
To keep the tricolor pattern vibrant, place it in a spot with bright, indirect light. Too little light may cause the leaves to revert to a solid green color.
We recommend waiting at least one week before repotting. This allows the plant to acclimate to your home's environment and recover from the stress of transit.
Check the soil moisture by touch; you should only water once the soil has dried out. Typically, this results in a weekly watering schedule, but it may vary depending on your home's humidity and temperature.
Yes, the Scindapsus Tricolor arrives in a 4-inch hanging pot, so it is ready to be displayed in a basket or on a shelf immediately.
