This plant's foliage fans out from central stems in a bushy, striking shape - and each leaf does look a bit like a sticking-out tongue, only much greener, with patches of lovely silver variegation! Give your plant bright, indirect light and only allow the top layer of soil to dry out between waters, and you'll be rewarded with more of this gorgeous, dense foliage.

Scientific Name
Schismatoglottis Sp. 'Ex Thailand' (split-mouthpiece plant, species from Thailand)

The scientific name for this plant is not yet known - the name given means 'this is a species of Schismatoglottis from Thailand'

Common Name
Thai Schismatoglottis, Drop Tongue Plant

Origin
Schismatoglottis come from rainforests in Southeast Asia; this plant is from Thailand.

Light
Bright, indirect light is best- this plant is used to having leaf canopy between it and the tropical sun!

Water
This plant likes to be moist but not soggy; let the top layer of soil dry out between waters. If it gets too thirsty it will wilt dramatically, but should recover after a drink.

Humidity
This plant appreciates high humidity so will benefit from a pebble tray or regular misting to help stop its leaves drying out!

Soil
A soil mix that drains well but retains moisture will work well here. One with added coir and perlite, or a mix designed for Calatheas or Marantas, will be just right! Repot every couple of years as the plant grows.

Food
Feed every four waters in the growing season, reduce to every six in autumn and winter.

Temperature
Average household temperatures of about 18-24°C are perfect- make sure it doesn't consistently drop below 15°C in winter.

Pet-safe
No, this plant is toxic to pets and small humans.

Sprouts Top Tips
Watch out for overwatering with this plant; early signs are yellowing lower leaves. If its leaves are frequently drooping and wilting, and the soil feels dry, you can probably water more frequently! If it's growing pale and leggy (i.e. lots of stem between leaves), it's probably getting too much light.

Important Information

If you have any questions, please check out the below or get in touch via our contact form

We're devoted to sending our customers quality plants with the best service around. Every plant is backed by our 7-day guarantee, so they arrive in good health.

Our team takes extra steps when prepping plants for transportation, but they're still sensitive to changes, so there may be minor cosmetic issues. We always aim to photograph and disclose any flaws before shipping, but a living creature travelling across the country in a box can take a hot minute to adjust to its new life.

If you have any issues within 7 days of receiving your order, holler at our customer support team on our contact form with your order details and some pics of the issue. After the guarantee has expired, though, we can't refund as we can't guarantee care and environmental factors. If you repot the plant during the 7 days, the guarantee is void.

We have been sending plants up and down the country for many year now and we like to think we have our way down to an art.

We protect the plant from falling out of the soil with tissue paper and tape if needed, then we wrap the plant in corrugated cardboard, and sometimes we protect the leaves with extra tissue paper if required. This is then placed into a box and if there is any empty space, we fill this with void fill to stop the plants moving around inside the box. Sometimes we will write a note on your packing slip to water the plant on arrival, so please look out for this. This is due a freshly watered plant going in a box will not only be soggy, but as the plant is in darkness this can sometimes make the plant unhappy when just freshly watered.

If your plant arrives to you unhappy, please send us a photo of the plant and packaging if relevant straight away, so we can advise you.

Online orders are packed and dispatched within a few days. Usually depending on volumes, we aim to get your order dispatched within 1 working day. We have collections from Royal Mail 6 days a week so deliveries tend to be speedy.

Our standard parcel delivery service is £4.99 for Royal Mail Tracked48, you can upgrade to Tracked24 for £2.50.

We do offer a Tracked48 Large Letter option for £2.99, and Tracked24 for £1 extra, but this only applies to products less than 2.5cm thick.

*Deliveries 7 days a week only included Tracked24 parcels.
