Description

The Epipremnum pinnatum (Dwarf Form) is a compact variety of the popular Dragon Tail plant, perfect for terrariums and vivariums where space is limited. Unlike standard E. pinnatum , which can grow into a large climbing aroid, this dwarf form maintains a smaller size while still producing the attractive glossy green leaves the species is known for.

Thriving in warm, humid conditions with indirect light, this plant is easy to care for and well suited to bioactive setups. It can be trained to trail along the substrate, creep over hardscape, or climb decor with support. Its small leaves and restrained growth habit make it particularly well suited to smaller enclosures.

With its resilience, compact nature, and lush tropical appearance, the dwarf Epipremnum pinnatum is an excellent choice for terrarium hobbyists looking for a hardy, decorative plant that won’t overwhelm the enclosure.
