Xerosicyos (Silver Dollar Vine)

Xerosicyos danguyi

Xerosicyos is a flowering plant genus of the family Cucurbitaceae. Its name comes from Greek xeros (meaning "dry") and sicyos for ("cucumber").

Lighting:  It is essential to position this plant near a south or west-facing window to ensure it receives the bright light it needs. This not only encourages optimal growth but also enhances the striking silver-green coloration of its distinctive, coin-shaped leaves.

Watering: Allow the soil to dry out between watering to prevent root rot which can happen if the soil remains consistently soggy. During the winter months, when the plant is in a dormant phase, reduce watering significantly and let the soil dry out more thoroughly.
