Shingle Plant – Jungle Beauty, Lush, Layered

Dischidia imbricata, also called the Shingle Plant, creates a living mosaic with overlapping, glossy “shingle” leaves that cling to mounts or cascade from hanging baskets. It’s textural and space-smart, i.e. perfect for compact, modern, or boho interiors and vertical garden displays.

Plant Personality & Aesthetic Appeal

Shingle Plant’s most capturing trait is its tightly overlapping, succulent-like leaves that lay flat along thin stems, creating a scalloped, scale-like appearance. Leaves are glossy, thick, and often slightly cupped, giving tactile depth and subtle light reflection. This makes Dischidia imbricata a standout in hanging baskets, mounted on cork or wood, or trained up a shallow trellis. The plant looks particularly refined, cascading from high shelves or in a vertical planter, where its patterned foliage can be admired at eye level.

Growth Habit & Size Potential

The Shingle Plant could grow trails 50 to 150 cm, depending on light and support, with individual leaves 1 to 3 cm wide and 1 to 4 cm long. It is an epiphytic climber that naturally hugs surfaces rather than sprawling freely, so it’s best trained to follow a mount or narrow pole. It is a moderate grower; new growth springs quickly in warm, humid seasons and slows in cooler months. Repot sparingly; use shallow pots or mount on bark to mirror its native habit. For a fuller wall effect, mount several cuttings close together to encourage a dense carpet of leaves.

Light & Location Needs

Dischidia imbricata thrives in bright, indirect light. Filtered morning sun from an east or north-east window is ideal; avoid harsh afternoon sun that can scorch the small leaves. It tolerates medium light but will grow more slowly and may lose compactness in very low light. Well-lit bathrooms, bright kitchens, and sheltered balconies (non-frost climates) suit it well. If mounted, place where dappled light reaches the foliage; for hanging baskets, keep a few metres back from intense panes or use sheer curtains.

Care Level & Maintenance Tips

Water when the top 2 to 3 cm of the medium is dry, that’s typically every 7 to 14 days indoors, depending on humidity and temperature. Use a free-draining epiphyte mix (bark, coco chips, perlite) or an airy potting blend; mounts prefer light moss or no soil with occasional misting. Provide humidity above 50% for the best leaf texture. Feed lightly with balanced liquid fertiliser diluted to half strength every 6 to 8 weeks during active growth. Avoid waterlogging and cold drafts. Propagate easily from stem cuttings placed on mounting wood or in a moist medium. Non-toxic to most households, but check if you have sensitive pets.

Dischidia Imbricata Plant: Shingle and Ready to Mingle

Adding a Shingle Plant warms indoor spaces with gentle texture and living pattern that supports mental calm and visual interest. Its compact, layered leaves create a subtle focal point that reduces visual monotony and can make work or relaxation areas feel fresher and more composed. As an epiphyte with moderate transpiration, it slightly increases local humidity, which can ease dry air irritation in heated rooms. Caring for a tactile plant like Dischidia Imbricata, like watering, checking mounts, and gentle pruning, offers a short, mindful ritual that boosts mood and focus.

excellent pillows i bought two sets!!
Size: Firm Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
I ordered these for my son who has neck issues and has gone through so many pillows trying to find one that he liked. They’re heavy, so i was worried that they might be “too” heavy to be able to sleep on comfortably, so I ordered a second set, one firmer than the other (just in case) and gave him a set for Xmas and he loved the first set so much without even trying the less firm ones.He also needs the cooling factor and these offered that, too. They are filled with pieces of memory foam (tons of it) and each pillow can be modified by removing some of the foam. The covers are beautiful, high quality fabric with a zipper so ts easy to remove or replace the foam pieces. The size is perfect and they keep their shape. I kept the second set i ordered rather than returning them and i love the pillows. I actually modified two by removing some of the foam pieces. I kept the foam pieces in a zippered pillow protector and i can always adjust mine when or if i need to. 1000% love these.

The Perfect Firm Pillow l
Size: Queen (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
It is everything it claims to be, cool, comfortable and strong. I got this for my husband first, he loves it and then got one for my son, he uses it to support his knees and has been sleeping much better since then. They both needed a firm pillow that is not super soft, firm but not achy. Finally found the perfect one.

It works! Quality pillow.
Size: Standard (1 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
This does actually provide a cooling effect, and it's very comfortable! The accompanying literature is helpful too. I believe this to be a quality pillow for the price.

Most comfortable pillow I’ve ever slept on
Size: Queen (1 Count), Color: Crescent White(cooling)
This is the most comfortable pillow I have ever slept on. It doesn't mash down like other pillows. Cradles my neck perfectly plus it’s cool. I broke my neck a couple of years ago and this pillow feels very good and comfortable. Definitely recommend to everyone. Ive used it since May and it’s retained its shape.

Smell
Size: Queen (2 Count), Color: Original White (Cooling)
The fact that there are not more comments on the smell of these pillows has me worried about some of yall. Listen, I LOVE the weight, and the firmness, it’s perfect for that. However, these pillows are RANK. They have a very strong mildew-ish smell that lingers. I took the outer cover off and washed it and let the pillow air out for a few days, the smell is still very strong when you press your face against it, which one does because it is in fact designed for that purpose. It smells so bad. It’s nauseating. I can smell it through two pillowcases and blanket that I threw on top of them hoping an extra layer would trap the smell. I’ll bake them in the Texas sun tomorrow and hope that helps, because otherwise these are the perfect pillows for someone who wants to feel like they are hugging a torso but can’t stand the sound/feel of someone else breathing. I don’t know…4 stars, if the smell goes away I’ll come back. Update: many many days later. Either they don’t really smell anymore or I got use to it. They’ve held their firmness and shape well. I like them.
