Scindapsus pictus thrive in bright indirect light. A bit of morning sun would work well though. Morning sun in gentler than afternoon sun.
For best growth and health, place these plants close to a bright window. Within 1-2 feet of a window that gets bright, indirect light. A large Northern window or Eastern window would be ideal.
Water throughly until water exits the drainage hole(s) and discard the excess water. Don’t water again until the top inch or so of the potting mix dries out. One common symptom of the soil getting too dry is that you will see all the leaves start curling under. If you notice this, feel the soil.
Fertilize all year except during the winter. Use 1/4″ teaspoon liquid fertilizer per gallon of water every time you water. You will really notice a difference with a quality fertilizer. Plants grow better, are more vigorous and flowering houseplants also produce more flowers.
