About Amydrium Medium 'Silver'

Origin

Hailing from the humid, warm understory of tropical Southeast Asian rainforests, where it loves to climb and spread across forest trees.

Air Purifying

Absolutely! This silver-hued stunner does double duty by clearing out indoor air pollutants while looking out-of-this-world gorgeous.

Toxicity

Toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep this web-weaving climber perched up high away from curious cats, dogs, and toddlers.

Caring for Amydrium Medium 'Silver'

Watering

Prefers soil that stays lightly moist, but never waterlogged! Water when the top 20% of soil feels dry to the touch, and let excess water drain completely.

Light and Placement

Loves bright, indirect light to show off that shimmering silver sheen! Protect its fenestrated foliage from harsh direct sun to prevent leaf burn.

Nutrition

Treat it to a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer once a month during spring and summer. Take a feeding break in the fall and winter months.

Repotting

Repot every 1–2 years in spring using a chunky, airy mix (think orchid bark, perlite, and soil). Give it a moss pole to climb for bigger, bolder leaves!

Pruning and Flowering

Trim back long, leggy vines or yellowing lower leaves near the base using clean shears. Flowers are rare indoors, but that silvery foliage is the ultimate reward!

Amydrium Medium 'Silver' SOS

Illness

Keep an eye out for spider mites in dry indoor air—bump up the humidity to keep them at bay! Yellow leaves usually mean it's getting too much H2O.
