Know before you buy
To keep that signature neon-green glow, place your plant in bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate lower light levels, the leaves may lose some of their vibrancy and turn a darker shade of green.
No, the Neon Pothos is toxic to pets if ingested. It is best to keep this plant on a high shelf or in a hanging basket where your pets cannot reach the trailing vines.
Allow the top inch or two of soil to dry out completely between waterings. Because this variety is not drought-tolerant, it prefers consistent moisture but will suffer if left sitting in soggy, waterlogged soil.
No special training is required; this plant is a natural trailer. As it grows, the vines will cascade over the edge of your pot or shelf on their own, though you can prune the stems if you want to encourage a bushier appearance.
While many houseplants are marketed for air purification, the Neon Pothos is primarily grown for its aesthetic value. It is not considered an effective air-purifying plant.
