Dischidia singularis, commonly known as Dischidia ‘Apple Leaf’, is a rare and unique vining plant loved for its thick, apple-shaped leaves. It belongs to the Apocynaceae family, closely related to Hoyas, and is an epiphytic plant, meaning it naturally grows on trees, absorbing moisture and nutrients from the air.

Characteristics:

• Growth Habit: A trailing or climbing epiphyte, perfect for hanging baskets or mounted displays.
• Leaves: Thick, round, apple-like green leaves with a slightly glossy texture.
• Flowers: Produces small, white, or pale green flowers that are delicate but not the main attraction.
• Unique Feature: Unlike most Dischidias, its leaves are more rounded and fleshy, making it a standout among vining plants.

Growing Conditions:

• Light: Prefers bright, indirect light; can tolerate some filtered sunlight but avoid harsh, direct sun.
• Soil: Requires a well-draining mix, such as orchid bark, sphagnum moss, or aroids mix.
• Water: Water moderately—allow the top layer of soil to dry slightly before watering. Avoid overwatering, as it is prone to root rot.
• Humidity: Prefers high humidity (60%+), making it ideal for terrariums or tropical environments.
• Temperature: Thrives in 65–85°F (18–29°C); avoid exposure to temperatures below 50°F (10°C).

Care & Maintenance:

• Fertilizing: Feed with a diluted balanced fertilizer (e.g., 10-10-10) once a month during the growing season.
• Pruning: Trim leggy vines to encourage bushier growth.
• Propagation: Easily propagated through stem cuttings, best rooted in sphagnum moss or water before transitioning to soil.
• Pests & Issues: Generally pest-resistant but watch for mealybugs and spider mites, especially in dry conditions.

Uses in Home & Garden:

• Hanging Baskets: The trailing growth makes it perfect for cascading from hanging pots.
• Mounted Displays: Can be grown on driftwood or bark, mimicking its natural epiphytic habitat.
• Terrariums & Indoor Gardens: Ideal for humid environments where it can thrive.
• Companion Plants: Pairs well with Hoyas, Peperomias, and other trailing epiphytes.
