Golden Pothos

Botanical name - Epipremnum 'golden pothos'

Origin - Soloman islands

Look at my bright green yellowy leaves! You'll be happy to hear that I'm a easy care, hard to kill kind of fella! 

Bright Indirect Light

I thrive in areas of bright indirect light. But please keep me away from harsh direct midday sun as this will scorch my leaves. If you put me in a darker spot I will be more prone to root rot and overwatering problems. Although I will tolerate it change your watering habits accordingly. 

Infrequent Watering

Allow the top third of the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Why not pop your finger in to check the moisture level. If you've put me in a darker spot allow half of my soil to dry out between waterings to prevent root rot occurring. 

Care Tips

Average room humidity is great for me. Be careful not to mist me too much as it can build up mildew and cause rot. 

Root rot is the most common problem. If you suspect this, you may see yellowing leaves or brown blotches, this could mean that my soil is waterlogged. Why not carefully take me out of my pot and inspect the roots. If they are yellow tinged and looking good then I'm doing well. If you find they are brown and mushy we have a problem. 

Fun Facts

I can trail or climb. You can use sticky picture hooks to promote longer vines and make a wall feature of me. Why not give it a go. Or you can train my to climb a moss stick.
