Know before you buy
Yes, the plant arrives fully rooted in a 3-inch pot with soil included, so it is ready to be placed in your home immediately upon arrival.
This plant requires bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves, or in low-light corners where growth may stall.
It is best to wait at least one week before repotting. This allows the plant to acclimate to your home's environment and recover from the stress of transit.
No, the Scindapsus Mariposa is not considered pet-safe. It is best to keep it in a location that is inaccessible to cats and dogs.
Check the soil moisture once a week; if the soil feels dry to the touch, it is time to water thoroughly. In most indoor environments, this will result in a weekly watering schedule.
