Scindapsus treubii ‘Dark Form’ is a rare and sophisticated tropical aroid adored for its velvety, near-black foliage and understated elegance. A member of the Araceae family and native to the humid rainforests of Southeast Asia, this collector’s favourite combines depth, texture, and minimalism in one striking plant.

The leaves are thick, leathery, and deeply glossy, with a dark green hue that often appears almost black in soft light. The smooth surface reflects a subtle metallic sheen, enhancing its luxurious, sculptural appearance. Its growth habit is compact and upright when young, later trailing or climbing as it matures — making it ideal for shelves, hanging planters, or moss poles.

Moody, resilient, and undeniably refined, Scindapsus treubii ‘Dark Form’ embodies modern tropical design — a plant that exudes quiet luxury and timeless appeal.


Scindapsus treubii ‘Dark Form’ – Care Guide

Light

Thrives in bright, indirect light, but its dark leaves tolerate lower light levels better than most tropicals. However, for steady growth and leaf size, provide consistent filtered brightness. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves or cause dull patches on their glossy surface.

Watering

Allow the top 3–4 cm of soil to dry out between waterings. Water thoroughly, then let excess drain away. Overwatering is the most common issue — Scindapsus species prefer to dry slightly before being watered again. In winter, reduce watering frequency.

Temperature and Humidity

  • Temperature: Prefers warmth between 20–30 °C; avoid temperatures below 15 °C.

  • Humidity: Enjoys moderate to high humidity (50–80%). While tolerant of average indoor conditions, higher humidity encourages lush growth and prevents crisp leaf edges. Mist occasionally or place near a humidifier for best results.

Soil and Potting

Use a well-draining, airy mix, such as compost blended with orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir. This provides excellent airflow and prevents the roots from staying too wet. Repot every 1–2 years in spring to refresh the substrate and allow for steady root expansion.

Feeding

Feed every 4–6 weeks during the growing season with a diluted, balanced liquid fertiliser or an aroid-specific formula. Over-fertilising can lead to salt build-up and leaf damage, so feed sparingly and consistently. Suspend feeding during the cooler months.

Pruning and Maintenance

Prune lightly to manage size or remove any older or damaged leaves. The plant can be trained to climb a moss pole or trellis for larger leaves or left to trail gracefully from a high planter. Wipe leaves occasionally with a damp, soft cloth to remove dust and accentuate their deep, glossy sheen.

Growth and Maturity

A slow to moderate grower, Scindapsus treubii ‘Dark Form’ typically reaches 60–90 cm in length indoors. Its compact growth habit makes it perfect for small spaces, while mature climbing plants develop larger, more elongated leaves with a leathery texture. Over time, it creates a rich, shadowy display that contrasts beautifully against lighter plants.

Common Issues

  • Yellowing leaves: Overwatering or poor drainage.

  • Faded colour: Insufficient light.

  • Brown edges: Low humidity or inconsistent watering.

  • Pests: Occasionally mealybugs or thrips; treat promptly with neem oil or insecticidal soap.


Background and Benefits

Native to the tropical rainforests of Borneo and Malaysia, Scindapsus treubii is an epiphytic vine that naturally climbs trees under the shaded forest canopy. The ‘Dark Form’ cultivar is celebrated for its velvety black-green leaves and elegant simplicity, making it a staple in rare plant collections and modern interior design.

In cultivation, this variety is valued for its resilience, tolerance to varying light levels, and ability to thrive with minimal attention. Like other Scindapsus species, it also functions as a natural air purifier, helping to remove airborne toxins while bringing a calming, moody elegance to indoor environments.

Styling Tip

Display Scindapsus treubii ‘Dark Form’ in a matte black, charcoal, or stone-toned planter to enhance its dark, moody elegance. It pairs beautifully with lighter tropicals such as Philodendron ‘Birkin’ or silvery species like Scindapsus pictus ‘Silver Hero’. For a sophisticated contrast, let it climb a moss pole or trail from a hanging basket where light can gently play across its glossy, nearly black leaves — a living accent of quiet luxury and contemporary tropical design.

    Don't Waste Your Money!
    I thought this was going to be good. First bottle opened OK, though the device obviously struggled to get the cork out. Used for 3 or 4 bottles. on the last two, I had to manually turn the device to get the corkscrew in - then pull the cork out. Cork is in the device and it won't come out. UNFORTUNATELY I THREW OUT THE PACKAGING, SO NOT SURE WHAT IF ANYTHING I CAN DO WITH IT OTHER THAN THROW IT OUT. NOTE: I did try recharging the device after each use, though it made no difference.

    Works great! Better than a Rabbit brand
    This is an awesome opener. My husband originally got me one for Christmas for our lake place. Everyone that uses it loves it. I had a r Rabbit brand at home and it finally wore out, but never worked as awesome as this one. My old one also required it to sit in a plastic base as a means of charging versus a cord I can simply plug in and hide. I like this style better because I can put it on a cute little tray. To work it, you simply push a button and it pull the cork out and then releases it without having to hit a different button. This one was on sale too, so extra bonus.

    Fabulous Product!
    Color: 7-in-1 Black, Size: Rechargeable Set
    This wine opener is fabulous! Foil cutter is sharp and works well. Easily removes the cork, then releases the cork from the corkscrew with a touch of a button. Also seals the wine which I have stored on its side in my wine refrigerator without any leaks. Charges quickly and I have opened many bottles of wine without needing to recharge it. Have had this item for a few months and if it continues to work this well, I will be amazed and very satisfied. Very reasonably priced as compared with similar products that I considered. Most of the other products cost more and did not do all of the functions that the Circle Joy does.
