Schismatoglottis
The Schismatoglottis is an elegant addition to your PLNTS collection. She originates from Thailand, Borneo and Malaysia, where she grows underneath the jungle canopy. She is part of the big Araceae family, which is known for their ability to grow flowers that are called Spadix. There are several varieties of the Schismatoglottis, but they all have ornamental looking leaves.

The Schismatoglottis is an aroid and would like to be provided with an airy, chunky, well draining soil mix. We recommend using 60% soil, 15% bark, 10% coconut fibre, 10% charcoal and 5% perlite. You don’t have to adjust the humidity within your house for the Schismatoglottis , she is fine in an average room humidity.
Light and placement for Schismatoglottis
Within her natural surroundings, the Schismatoglottis receives bright indirect light, or filtered sunlight. Within your urban jungle she would like to have a spot with lots of indirect bright light, but out of any direct sunlight.
