Know before you buy
To encourage the plant to produce larger, fenestrated leaves, provide a moss pole or climbing support. As the plant climbs, it mimics its natural environment, which triggers the development of more mature foliage.
No, the Pothos 'Albo Variegata' is toxic to pets if ingested. It is best to keep this plant in a location that is inaccessible to cats and dogs.
This plant requires bright, indirect light to keep its creamy white patterns vibrant. If the light is too low, the plant may lose its variegation and revert to solid green leaves.
Water the plant when the top inch or two of soil feels dry to the touch. It prefers to dry out slightly between waterings, so avoid letting it sit in standing water.
While it can adapt to standard household conditions, it prefers higher humidity levels. If your home is particularly dry, consider placing it near a humidifier or in a room with naturally higher moisture.
The 'Albo Variegata' is a fast grower under the right conditions. With consistent bright, indirect light and regular feeding during the growing season, you will see significant vining progress.
