Scindapsus Bakunawa
The Mythical SerpentNamed after the legendary sea serpent of Philippine mythology, Scindapsus Bakunawa captivates with its dragon-scale texture and haunting silver sheen. Each leaf possesses a stoic, prehistoric beauty, making it a rare and formidable addition to the collection of those who gravitate toward the dark and mysterious.
Care Essentials
Light
Prefers moderate to bright indirect light. This brings out the "moonlit" silver patterns. Protect the unique leaf texture by avoiding harsh, direct sunlight.
Water
Allow the medium to dry almost completely before watering. Bakunawa is resilient, but like its mythical namesake, it dislikes stagnant conditions around its roots.
Humidity
Maintain humidity levels around 60% or higher. This ensures the leaves remain supple and prevents the dramatic silver markings from fading or crisping.
Temperature
Ideally kept between 18 and 27°C. It thrives in stable, warm environments and should be kept away from sudden chilly drafts or air conditioning vents.
Soil
A chunky, well-draining aroid mix is vital. Incorporate plenty of orchid bark and charcoal to mimic its natural epiphytic environment in the tropical wild.
