Dischidia oiantha ‘White Diamond’

Dischidia oiantha ‘White Diamond’ — A Rare Variegated Epiphyte with a Soft, Shimmering Glow

Dischidia ‘White Diamond’ is a compact, trailing epiphyte prized for its creamy white variegation and delicate, jewel‑like leaves. Each leaf features a soft green centre framed by bright white margins, giving the plant a luminous, almost hand‑painted look. It’s a standout choice for collectors and anyone who loves unusual foliage.

Naturally growing on trees and rocks, this Dischidia prefers to cling and trail rather than sit in heavy soil. In the home, it behaves much like an air plant — light, airy, and happiest in a breathable environment.

Perfect for shelves, hanging planters, terrariums, or adding a bright accent to your indoor plant collection.

Airflow
