Scindapsus treubii 'Moonlight' silvery leaf profile
- Plant type: Tropical aroid vine.
- Family: Araceae.
- Species background: Scindapsus treubii is native to Peninsula Malaysia, north-western Borneo and Java.
- Leaf shape: Simple, heart-shaped to oval leaves with entire margins.

- Growth habit: Trailing, climbing or spreading horizontally from the pot.
Container growth for Scindapsus treubii 'Moonlight'
Scindapsus treubii 'Moonlight' grows from vining stems that can be left to trail or guided onto a support. A pole can help the plant climb, while a hanging pot highlights the thick leaves as they overlap along the vine.
The glossy leaves show stress when roots stay wet for too long, so watering should follow the condition of the substrate rather than a fixed calendar. An open mix gives the thicker roots oxygen after each watering.
Scindapsus treubii 'Moonlight' care indoors
- Light: Bright indirect or filtered light keeps internodes shorter and reduces scorch risk.
- Watering: Water when the mix is half dry to almost dry, then let excess water drain away.
- Humidity: Moderate to higher humidity helps thick new leaves unfold smoothly.
- Temperature: Keep warm and stable, around 18–24 °C or slightly higher.
- Substrate: Use a well-drained aroid mix with bark, perlite, coco chips or pumice.
- Pot choice: Drainage holes are important; a small support can guide climbing stems.
- Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth and pause after repotting until roots settle.
- Semi-hydroponics: Pon or similar mineral media can be used after transition, with a low reservoir at first.
- Pruning: Cut above nodes to shorten vines or propagate healthy sections.
Scindapsus treubii 'Moonlight' issues to catch early
- Yellow leaves: Often point to wet roots or a dense mix drying too slowly.
- Soft stems: Can follow overwatering and poor oxygen around the roots.
- Brown leaf marks: Direct sun can scorch the glossy surface.
- Leaf curl: Dry roots, heat or root damage can stop leaves from sitting flat.
- Pests: Watch for mealybugs, aphids and spider mites around nodes and leaf backs.

Scindapsus treubii 'Moonlight' contains calcium oxalate crystals and is toxic if ingested. Keep it away from pets and children; chewing can irritate the mouth and throat and may cause drooling, swelling or vomiting.

Informative and age appropriate!
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
Bought this book as a gift for my friend’s daughter. It’s full of Islamic guidance on navigating puberty and the tone is perfect for young girls aged 9-13. The illustrations are simple yet cute and relatable. The author and illustrator did a superb job! Can’t wait to see what other books they come out with.

Books like this are why I get self-help books on Amazon
Format: Paperback
If you're looking at reviews for this book then you're likely looking for some insight into the college process on a deeper level than surface-level advice. In that case, you should undoubtedly get this book.
I'm going to college next year, and I'm the type of person who copes with things by reading about them. Books like this book are the reason I do that. It's clear and easy to read, it's direct, it's straightforward, and best of all, it's full of simple advice that can dramatically improve one's college experience. It provides this advice without being pretentious- the book's title turned me off at first, and while the author certainly has a very pragmatic approach to college life, he decries resume-padding and the like.
I've recommended it to many of my classmates, and it will serve as a sort of bible for me next year. As much as it's helpful on a practical level, it's helped me in another way, too. I went looking for books because I was nervous about next year. This book helped reassure me by encouraging me to focus on the exciting aspects rather than the unnerving ones. If only I could get such a powerful effect every time I spent ten dollars.
A few years later:
This review actually was written by my then high-school-age son, and I have to tell you that he went on to have an absolutely stellar, meaningful career at an Ivy League college. During those four years, and since, he has frequently referenced this book, and its author, whose other books he later read, as having been his primary source of guidance about how to handle his undergraduate life.

PROFOUND
Format: Paperback
Mesmerizing, profound, even for a study machine such as myself. Cal Newport, a college student himself, wrote these books after interviewing extraordinary students around the country who had straight A's, full social lives, and did lots of extracurriculars such as starting businesses & non-profits, and being politically involved. The point of all his books is how to study more efficiently so you can be an outstanding student while fitting in other essential dimensions of the college experience such as friends, parties and guest lectures. And unlike "speed reading," his techniques are not smoke and mirrors; they are solid and make sense.
I didn't feel there was much overlap between his books. "How to Win at College" is composed of 75 two-page "tips" that cover a very wide range of topics. This is the book I originally fell in love with and ordered copies of for many friends, and I recommend reading it first. His second book, "How to Become a Straight A Student," focuses on a few key skills: the trap of "pseudo-studying," time management, how to actually study, conquer exams, and write papers. However once I read it, I liked it almost better than the first one!
In short, they are both indespensible, easy reads, hard to put down, and completely different from any other "study skills" books you might read. They are basically "myth busters" of conventional wisdom about school success. If you want to know the "secrets of the universe" regarding succeeding in and loving college, look no further.

70% practical advice, 15% feel-good advice, 1% useless advice, 14% advice that saved my academic life
Format: Paperback
To be honest, if I had just graduated high school and someone gave me this book as a gift, I would roll my eyes and never open it. I picked it up a week ago, however, now that I am almost done with my second year of university, and I really do wish that I had had it (and cared to read it) two years ago.
The book is seventy-five pieces of advice, each with about two pages of explanation. The advice is pretty simple, as you can see from looking at the table of contents ("Dress Nicely for Class," "Never Nap," "Eat Healthy," "Always Go to Class"). But the reason this book is effective is that it serves as a quick-reference manifesto for some of the more important (to me) advice.
For example, I'm taking a grad-level fiction writing class. No due dates (except the final deadline at the end of the semester) and no class. You just write at your own pace and turn in a portfolio. This is incredibly difficult for me to do, and I'm unbelievably far behind in the work for the class. I was really quite worried about how I would ever pull it off. The whole semester, my fiction work has been priority #75, and I usually crash between priorities #14 and #20. But with some of the advice in this book ("Keep a Work Progress Journal," "Set Arbitrary Deadlines," "Avoid Daily To-Do Lists," "Don't Take Breaks Between Classes"), I actually feel pretty confident about being able to finish on time. By reading this book (and [...] and Newport's more recent book,
) I've adopted some strategies and habits that have actually yielded results.
Before Cal Newport, I was up late every night, angrily doing my homework until I couldn't drink any more tea, without any free time. Now, I'm getting my homework done before sundown (for the most part), feeling enormously more relaxed, and regaining a good amount of the excitement that I had about college before I got here.
If you're on your way to college, and you're the sort of person who can stomach (and listen to) advice, do yourself a favor and read this book. Newport admits in the introduction that not every piece of advice will be for you (for me: "Exercise Five Days a Week" and "Use a Filing Cabinet"). If you want to be more than an average student without being a "grind," this book has a good deal of solid advice.
If you're already in college, and you're looking for more in-depth and practical advice, I recommend also reading
. It has more thorough advice for confronting the terrors that you have come to know in college.
