Care Instructions
The Epipremnum aureum thrives with a little neglect, making it a great choice for busy plant parents:
- Light: Prefers bright, indirect sunlight. Can tolerate lower light conditions but may lose some variegation in its leaves. Avoid direct sunlight which can scorch the leaves.
- Water: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out before watering. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
- Humidity: Adapts to average household humidity levels, but will appreciate occasional misting.
- Toxicity: Mildly toxic to pets and humans if ingested. Keep out of reach of curious creatures and little ones.
Bellr Bonus Tip!
Train your Golden Pothos to climb by providing a moss pole or trellis. This will encourage upward growth and create a unique, vertical accent piece. You can also propagate this plant easily by taking stem cuttings in water.
