Discover the rare and stunning Rhaphidophora cryptantha, an exquisite shingling aroid native to Southeast Asia.

This unique plant boasts silvery blue-green leaves adorned with eye-catching silver veins. Known as the Shingle Plant among its close relatives, Rhaphidophora Cryptantha’s foliage lies flat against a tree instead of fanning outwards.

Some of our Rhaphidophora Cryptantha plants are carefully rooted in soil and encouraged to start shingling up a moss pole. If rooted soil plants are not available, we will take a fresh cutting.

As they climb, their foliage continues to grow larger and, with adequate humidity, remains flat against the climbing surface.
