Know before you buy
This plant thrives in bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate lower light conditions, the golden variegation on the leaves may fade or become less vibrant if the plant is kept in a dim corner.
No, this plant is toxic to pets if ingested. It is best to keep it on a high shelf or in a hanging planter where curious animals cannot reach the trailing vines.
Allow the top inch or two of soil to dry out completely between waterings. Because it is a vining plant, it prefers consistent moisture but will suffer if left sitting in standing water.
Yes, the Golden Pothos is a vigorous grower. With proper care and occasional pruning, the vines can grow several feet long, making it an excellent choice for bookshelves or hanging baskets.
The plant is supplied in a standard 4-inch nursery pot. You may want to place it inside a decorative cachepot or planter that matches your home decor once it arrives.
