Plant Care & Growing Tips

Caring for your pothos live plant set is straightforward, making them excellent choices for plant enthusiasts of all levels. Both varieties thrive under similar conditions, ensuring a consistent and rewarding experience. For optimal growth and vibrant foliage, understanding their basic needs is key. These easy care houseplants are quite resilient, but providing them with the right environment will help them flourish and display their full beauty.

Light: Pothos plants prefer bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can scorch their leaves, especially the variegated areas of golden pothos and silver pothos. They can tolerate lower light conditions, but their variegation may become less pronounced. An east-facing window is often ideal, or a few feet away from a south or west-facing window. Rotate your plants periodically to ensure even growth. Watering: Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. It’s better to underwater slightly than to overwater, as pothos are susceptible to root rot. Allow excess water to drain completely from the pot. Reduce watering frequency during the cooler, darker months. Soil: Plant your pothos in a well-draining potting mix. A standard houseplant mix amended with perlite or orchid bark for improved drainage works well. This helps prevent the soil from becoming waterlogged. Temperature & Humidity: Pothos thrive in typical indoor temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C). They appreciate average to high humidity but tolerate normal household humidity levels. Avoid placing them near drafts or sudden temperature fluctuations. Fertilization: Feed your pothos live plant with a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer every 2-4 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce or cease fertilization during fall and winter. Pruning: Prune your pothos to encourage bushier growth and to control their length. You can easily propagate the cuttings in water or soil to create new plants. This also helps maintain their shape and vigor. Common problems include yellowing leaves from overwatering or brown crispy edges from underwatering or too much direct sun.
