Scindapsus 'Jade Satin' Variegated

The variegated form of Jade Satin overlays irregular white and mint-green splashes across the plain cultivar's already thick, velvety jade-green leaves. The variegation sits on top of the same satin-sheen texture that makes the base plant appealing, so plants combine an unusually tactile leaf surface with genuine colour interest. As with any chimeric sport, variegation percentage varies between cuttings and can drift toward more or less white over time depending on light exposure.
