Pothos Care 101: Is This the Easiest Houseplant to Care For?

Рет қаралды 587,807

Күн бұрын

Pothos, also known as Epipremnun aureum, HAS to be one of the easiest plants to care for...ever. It's native to French Polynesia and has become invasive in many tropical countries...but in our homes it's an epic plant!
I've got a few pothos varieties for you in this video:
- 'Satin' Pothos (Scindapsus Pictus)
- Green Queen Pothos
- Marble Queen Pothos
There are a few other cool varieties to look out for, too: golden pothos and neon pothos are some of my other favs.
It's exceptionally easy to care for, needing medium light, well-draining, nutrient-rich soil, and fertilization once a year or so. You can let the vines trail or climb, depending on your aesthetic.
Pothos propagation is best done via cuttings in water, as I find the soil method is slower and has a higher failure rate.

What's your favorite pothos variety and where did you get it?

@athenakeesee9548 5 жыл бұрын

I like getting houseplant cuttings from Etsy. It's a way to support nice houseplant enthusiasts and it's usually an affordable way to try several varieties. I especially love the marble queen, neon pothos thrives in bright light, and N'Joy has interesting variegation.

Satin pothos!...received one from Etsy a couple weeks ago. Unfortunately I killed it within a week. It arrived in good health but became a tossed salad in the mail, so I replanted it immediately. I think I should have held back watering because it developed root rot a few days later. So sad...it was such a beautiful plant with soft, fuzzy leaves! I managed to salvage some very small cuttings and I am attempting to root at least one in water. Not sure it will make it.

When I lost my daugther, got a whole bunch of plant arrangements. I knew nothing about plants then, so everything had died, except for this 1 leaf of pothos that my mom propagated in a little vase of water. I was so afraid to lose it and so I never touched it. That 1 leaf and a bunch of roots survived for 11 years, I finally planted it in a pot of soil recently. 3 leaves so far ☺️🥰

I went on vacation and didn’t water it for 2 weeks…watered when I got home and half the leaves turned yellow/brown and died. Cut those off - repotted because the soil seemed parched and now the soil is molding and and plant looks like death. Going to try to cut up the survivors and propagate and start fresh! Fingers crossed! It was so pretty when I got it.

This was a great video!!! Subscribing now! My grandma is an Ohio/Florida snowbird that likes to collect native vines and air plants in the winter. I’ve always admired a beautiful two-toned yellow and white pothos plant that she had scavenged and potted. She would just leave it outside her trailer when she would come back to Ohio in the spring and it was still kicking when she got back in October. Last summer she brought it back to put by the pool for the summer. It turned completely yellow and started looking unhappy. She told me to take it home to see if I could rehab it. I stuck it on a balcony ledge in my house where it gets no direct light and most of the plant has turned a beautiful dark jade green . I have a vine that’s 13 feet long! It’s my favorite of all my plants and I propagated plants for my kids to take with them someday. Hopefully we’ll all always have a part of my grandmas Florida jungle scavenge! 😜♥️

Hello! Two things: which soil would you recommend from a store like Lowe’s? And also, do pothos need to be moved to a bigger pot as they grow? Especially if we re-add clippings? Or can they stay in the same hanging basket and conform to its home?

@mellocancan 2 жыл бұрын

Organic soil. You don't have to move to a bigger pot they thrive when root bound. You can take clippings and just pin it down in the dirt of the same pot or can propagate it in a new pot. Just take a clipping and put it in water. When you see roots growing you can put it in soil.

I was wondering why all of my soil propagated pothos died in a matter of days! I thought I did something wrong and come to find out they prefer water propagation.🤦🏽‍♀️ I just ordered a 36 pack of glass test tubes. I’m about to be SO unhinged propagating making Frankenstein style pothos and no one can stop meeee!!!😈😈😈🪴🪴🪴

I have a golden pothos I nicknamed lady bug. My mom got it for me when it was tiny in a lady bug pot. Its huge now and I've made 3 other plants from it, one of which is kept in just water. Being able to see the roots grow is great! I also have a silver pothos which is pretty too.

I have Golden, Marble Queen, literally three leaves of a formerly lustrous Jade N Pearl, and I mistakenly have what I thought was a Silver Pothos. Come to find out it's a Silver Philodendron.

I cant for the life of me seem to get my pothos to grow, they dont grow very fast and when they do grow its all one sided. I cant get the fuller look. :-(

@epicgardening 5 жыл бұрын

Don't stress about the fuller look, that's almost always from planting many cuttings in one pot

Hey Kevin! Your videos have been super helpful in caring for my 20+ indoor plants :) With spring coming in hot, I've been doing a ton of research on the right fertilizers to use for each plant, and it seems like every website says something different. Thoughts on putting out a Fertilizing 101 video for indoor plants? I'm most curious about pothos, as well as hoya, spider, philodendron, and monstera deliciosa. Thanks for your help!

this was really cool, i juwst subbed. got my first house and i want to fill it with GREEN! pothos was my very first plant, i just got it this weekend. I am pretty good with outdoor plants, but indoors are a whole new game for me. my pothos looks like a mixture of the green queen and the other one with white/light green all over it. cant wait to see how it grows and eventually propagate it

New to house plants. I only have 6 at the moment but discovered pothos through KZfaq. Yours are lovely specimens. I currently like the marble queen and golden pothos. Although marble is fairly expensive in the UK. I've seen a few cuttings on eBay I may purchase. Great video btw.

Oof, sorry to hear it's expensive there! Hopefully you can get your hands on a marble queen :)
