Sugar Vine (Cissus striata)

Sugar Vine (Cissus striata)

This vine plant is ideal for easily attaching to décor pieces and adding height to an enclosure with its climbing tendrils. Its glossy green leaves can be pruned to create a bushy effect. Thriving in moist and humid environments, it is very easy to grow and manage, making it a great addition to any enclosure.

The Sugar Vine needs a regular watering, usually when the top third of the substrate is dry. It enjoys a brightly lit, but indirect spot; however, it copes well in all levels of light. To encourage more growth, ensure it can bask in a little sun every day. Feed once a month to encourage those long tendrils.
