Description
Origin
The Scindapsus, also known as Epipremnum ‘Golden Pothos’, originates from the forests of Southeast Asia. Here, the plant grows along twists and rocks toward the light. Today, however, the Scindapsus is a very common houseplant, especially popular for its striking colors and simple care.
Characteristics
The main characteristics of the ‘Golden Pothos’ are large heart-shaped leaves with unique golden spots. As it ages, the spots change from bright yellow to a pattern in a mix of green and yellow. The plant can reach several meters long and can grow hanging or climbing.
Care
In caring for the Epipremnum ‘Golden Pothos’, this plant is not particularly demanding. Place the plant in a spot with indirect light and moderate water supply; the soil can dry slightly between waterings. It is best to repot the plant into a larger pot every two years to ensure optimal growth. Temperatures between 15 and 25 degrees Celsius are ideal for the ‘Golden Pothos’. It is recommended to mist the plant regularly to maintain high humidity, which contributes to the health and appearance of the plant.
