Know before you buy
No, the Golden Pothos is not pet-safe. It contains insoluble calcium oxalates, which can cause irritation if ingested by cats or dogs, so it is best kept in a hanging location out of reach.
This plant prefers bright to medium indirect light. While it is quite adaptable and can tolerate lower light conditions, it will grow faster and maintain more vibrant variegation in brighter spots.
Yes, the Golden Pothos arrives in an 8-inch nursery grow pot equipped with a removable hanger, making it ready to display as soon as it arrives.
You should aim to water your plant about once a week. Always check the top inch or two of soil; if it feels dry to the touch, it is time for a drink.
The Golden Pothos is a fast-growing vining plant. With proper care, its trailing stems can grow several feet long, creating a lush, cascading effect in your home.
