The Showstopper for Your Indoor Collection
The Exotica Scindapsus (Scindapsus pictus 'Exotica') is a breathtaking houseplant cherished for its oversized, heart-shaped leaves adorned with bold silver variegation. Unlike its smaller-leaved relatives, such as ‘Argyraeus’ or ‘Silvery Ann,’ Exotica features dramatic splashes of silver on a deep green canvas, creating a striking visual impact. Its versatility as a trailing or climbing plant makes it a centerpiece in any indoor jungle, whether cascading from a hanging basket or climbing a trellis.

Exotica’s leaves are larger and broader than other Scindapsus pictus varieties, with bold, silver patterns that stand out in any collection.
High-Impact Variegation
The silver variegation on Exotica is more pronounced and covers a greater portion of the leaves compared to varieties like ‘Argyraeus,’ making it a favorite among plant enthusiasts.
Vigorous Growth Habit
This variety grows quickly and can trail or climb up to 3 feet or more, creating a lush and dramatic display.

Exotica Scindapsus Care Guide
Light Requirements
- Prefers bright to medium indirect light to maintain its vibrant variegation.
- Can tolerate lower light, but foliage may lose its silver markings.
Watering
- Water thoroughly, allowing the top 1-2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings.
- Adjust watering frequency during winter or if placed in cooler environments.
Humidity
- Thrives in higher humidity levels (above 50%) but adapts to average indoor humidity.
- Consider misting or using a humidifier to enhance growth.
Temperature
- Ideal range: 60-85°F.
- Protect from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
Soil
- Use a well-draining potting mix with ingredients like peat moss and perlite to prevent root rot.
Fertilizing
- Fertilize monthly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a diluted water-soluble fertilizer.
Pruning and Propagation
- Prune to remove damaged leaves and encourage fuller growth.
- Propagate easily via stem cuttings in water or moist soil.
Growth Habit
- Trails beautifully from hanging baskets or climbs when provided with a trellis or moss pole.
Pests and Toxicity
- Resilient to most pests but monitor for common houseplant issues such as spider mites or mealybugs.
- Toxic to humans and pets if ingested due to calcium oxalate crystals.
How to Differentiate Exotica from Other Scindapsus Varieties
- Silvery Ann: Features smaller, more heart-shaped leaves with irregular silver patches. In contrast, Exotica has larger, more dramatic leaves with bold and consistent variegation.
- Argyraeus: Known for its smaller leaves with fine, speckled silver spots, Argyraeus has a more delicate appearance compared to the bold and robust Exotica.
- Silver Satin: Similar to Exotica but with less pronounced variegation and a more subdued silver finish.
Why Choose Exotica Scindapsus?
- Show-Stopping Foliage: Its oversized, variegated leaves are a statement piece in any plant collection.
- Easy Care: Perfect for beginners and experienced plant parents alike, requiring minimal maintenance.
- Versatility: Whether trailing or climbing, Exotica adds depth and drama to your indoor spaces.
Native Habitat and History
Exotica Scindapsus originates from the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia, where it grows as an understory plant. Its large leaves and silver variegation evolved to reflect low light and optimize photosynthesis in its natural environment. This cultivar has been a staple in indoor gardening since its introduction in the late 20th century, celebrated for its beauty and adaptability.

Quality and balance
Color: Grey, Color: Grey
If you are reading this review and looking at this watch, you are most likely someone that appreciates mechanical movements and the rich history behind them and the brands that are known for making quality watches which have a beautiful balance between a timepiece and a piece of jewelry. For me, I have multiple sport watches with many complications and some that cost as much or even more than this Tissot Le Locle but anyone that wears a watch and appreciates the heritage of a mechanical movement must own this watch. The jewelry part of this watch is amazing, not loud, just a refined look making a statement that this is not something cheap. The picture does not do it justice. The dial has an amazing "personality" where under low lighting it looks silver and under normal lighting soft white making a beautiful contrast between the black hands and black roman numerals only to surprise you again when you change the viewing angle and the black numerals change to silver. The black hands will give you no trouble reading the time at a glance and 39mm will prove to be the perfect size for any wrist.
The movement is high quality as expected to be in a Tissot and will be working for many years to come so you can pass this watch down to another generation. As a matter of fact, last year my mother who is 78 found the Tissot watch she had in her youth that was in a box with old family watches and she had not worn for decades. She gave the crown a few spins and the watch came back to life keeping accurate time. This is what you can expect from a Tissot movement.
So if you are buying this for your self, you are in the right place, if you are buying it for someone else, make sure they can appreciate what this is otherwise you are better off spending your money elsewhere.
You should also consider getting quality quick release black and brown leather straps with a classic buckle to make this watch suitable for any attire.

An Exciting and Beautiful Watch
Color: Grey
Update 2-11-18 More time has passed and my satisfaction with the watch continues to grow; it is gratifying to me to simply look at the watch on my arm, I am so pleased with its appearance and operation that it is a joy to wear and to watch its competent functioning. It is keeping excellent time and shows a loss of only a few seconds each day; it is truly a fine watch.
Update 2-3-18 I have researched the watch and discovered some interesting questions about locating the serial number. In checking the literature sent with the watch I noticed the small tag attached to the watch identified the serial number as a series of nine letters which are repeated on the case of the watch. I also looked up the barcode and the first three numbers indicated Switzerland to be the country of origin and accurately identified this watch specifically. I"m satisfied this is an authentic watch from Tissot.
I know that beauty is in the eye of the beholder but to me this is an elegant and beautiful watch and the nicest I have ever owned; it was delivered this afternoon and impressed me greatly right out of the box. I have reset the time and date and it seems to be operating perfectly. I had felt some concern for its authenticity but after seeing the watch and its packaging my concerns have all disappeared; to me it looks and feels like the excellent quality I would expect from Tissot..
Sadly the Certificate of Authenticity had been removed by the seller and on contacting them I was told they reserved the right to do that if they wanted to. I see in at least one other case shown under comments the seller left the document for the buyer. The watch itself strongly indicates the authenticity I had hoped for from the Tissot brand so I'm not all that troubled by the seller's decision.
The user manual is tiny and limited in information; a better copy is available online as a PDF file; I've downloaded the file and suggest you might want to consider that option as well.

Jewel case not included!
Color: Grey
I ordered this item and received it without the case shown in the pictures. Contacted Amazon and asked for a replacement - and the customer service over the phone was very understanding about the missing case.
The replacement also showed up without the jewel case.
I love this watch, but the buying experience wasn't great. Also, on certain occasions it has lost time after being worn for several days and then not being worn for one day. Kinda disappointing. Still, gorgeous to look at, feels great on my wrist.
