Golden pothos, also known as Epipremnum aureum, is a popular and hardy houseplant known for its trailing vines and attractive, heart-shaped leaves with golden-yellow variegation.
Here are some key points about caring for a golden pothos:
Light: Golden pothos thrives in bright, indirect light but can also tolerate low-light conditions. However, the variegation might be less pronounced in lower light.
Watering: Water the plant when the top inch of soil feels dry. Golden pothos is quite forgiving if you miss a watering, but avoid letting it sit in waterlogged soil.
Humidity: It can adapt to a range of humidity levels, but it prefers moderate to high humidity. If the air is very dry, consider misting the leaves occasionally.
Temperature: This plant prefers temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C). Keep it away from cold drafts and temperatures below 50°F (10°C). 5. Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix. A standard houseplant mix works well.
Fertilizing: Feed the plant with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 2-3 months during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding in the fall and winter.
Pruning: Regular pruning helps control its size and encourages fuller growth. You can also propagate cuttings easily in water or soil.
Toxicity: Golden pothos is toxic to pets and humans if ingested, so it's best to keep it out of reach of children and animals.
Golden pothos is an excellent choice for beginners due to its low maintenance requirements and ability to thrive in various conditions. Plus, it’s great for improving indoor air quality!
