Pothos | Neon
Best low-maintenance trailing plant for novice indoor gardeners.
The Neon Pothos is a favorite houseplant known for its striking, vibrant neon green foliage that brightens any interior space. Its ease of care makes it an excellent choice for beginners, thriving even in rooms with soft, natural light. This trailing plant transforms spaces into calming jungle-scapes, and placing it higher encourages longer, faster growth as it reaches toward the ground. It requires bright, indirect light and should be watered only when the top one to two inches of soil feel dry to the touch. Please note this variety is not pet-friendly.

Know before you buy
This variety thrives in bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate lower light conditions, the vibrant neon foliage may fade to a darker green if it does not receive enough natural light.
Water your plant only when the top one to two inches of soil feel dry to the touch. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so it is best to check the soil moisture before adding more water.
The plant ships in a plastic nursery grow pot, which is functional for the plant's health. You can place the nursery pot directly into a decorative vessel of your choice or repot it into a container with drainage holes once it has acclimated to your home.
No, this variety is not pet-friendly. It is best to keep it in a location that is inaccessible to curious pets, such as a high shelf or a hanging planter.
The Neon Pothos has a natural trailing habit. Placing the pot in a higher location, such as on a bookshelf or in a hanging planter, encourages the vines to grow longer and faster as they reach toward the ground.
