It has similar care requirements and is often grouped with pothos because of its trailing growth habit. What makes Silvery Ann different from Satin Pothos?Silvery Ann has larger patches of silver that often cover much of each leaf, giving it a brighter, more metallic appearance than other Scindapsus pictus varieties. Can it climb or trail?Yes. It naturally trails from hanging baskets but will also climb a moss pole or trellis, often producing larger leaves over time. How often should I fertilize it?Feed once a month during spring and summer with a balanced water-soluble houseplant fertilizer at half strength. Reduce or stop fertilizing during winter. Can I propagate Silvery Ann?Yes. Stem cuttings with at least one node root easily in water or moist potting mix, making propagation simple. Why are my leaves curling or drooping?Curling or drooping leaves are usually a sign the plant needs water. If the soil is already wet, overwatering or root rot may be the cause.
