Scindapsus Argyraeus White Crocodile is a Scindapsus form traded under this name in the Scindapsus pictus 'Argyraeus' group, named for its heavy, scale-like silver patterning. Scindapsus is a genus of climbing aroids from Southeast Asia, and the houseplant trade now carries dozens of named forms selected for silver splash, sheen and variegation.
Note: this is an established, potted plant shipped in its nursery pot. Photos show a representative specimen — leaf count, size and variegation vary naturally from plant to plant.
Care tip: Scindapsus hate wet feet — let the mix dry partway between waterings, and watch for slightly curled leaves as the cue it is time to water.
Give it bright, indirect light and a chunky aroid mix of bark, perlite and peat. Avoid harsh direct sun, which scorches the satin foliage, and offer a small moss pole or trellis if you want larger, more mature leaves rather than a trailing habit.
Its textured, heavily silvered leaves make it a great contrast plant next to plainer green Scindapsus.
