Dischidia
Dischidia Plants for Sale
Discover Dischidia plants with unusual foliage and naturally trailing growth, sourced from Thailand. Dischidia are tropical epiphytic plants in the Apocynaceae family and are closely related to Hoya. Rather than growing like typical soil-based houseplants, many Dischidia naturally grow on trees and other surfaces in warm, humid tropical environments.
Their compact leaves, trailing stems and distinctive growth habits make Dischidia especially interesting for hanging baskets, mounted displays, terrariums and tropical plant collections. Some varieties develop small, rounded leaves, while others have elongated foliage or unusual leaf forms that give the plant a very different appearance as it matures.
Dischidia generally prefer bright filtered light, warmth, humidity and a growing medium that provides excellent airflow around the roots. Because many species are adapted to epiphytic conditions, heavy or poorly draining soil can hold too much moisture around the root system. An airy mix and careful watering can help create conditions more similar to their natural growing environment.
Our Dischidia selection is sourced from Thailand's tropical plant-growing industry. As with other plants transported from warm nursery conditions, a newly received Dischidia may need time to adjust to differences in light, temperature, humidity and airflow. Gradual acclimatization can help the plant settle into its new growing environment.
Browse our available Dischidia plants to discover unusual tropical specimens for your indoor collection, greenhouse, hanging display or specialty plant-growing setup.
