I like getting houseplant cuttings from Etsy. It's a way to support nice houseplant enthusiasts and it's usually an affordable way to try several varieties. I especially love the marble queen, neon pothos thrives in bright light, and N'Joy has interesting variegation.
Satin pothos!...received one from Etsy a couple weeks ago. Unfortunately I killed it within a week. It arrived in good health but became a tossed salad in the mail, so I replanted it immediately. I think I should have held back watering because it developed root rot a few days later. So sad...it was such a beautiful plant with soft, fuzzy leaves! I managed to salvage some very small cuttings and I am attempting to root at least one in water. Not sure it will make it.
When I lost my daugther, got a whole bunch of plant arrangements. I knew nothing about plants then, so everything had died, except for this 1 leaf of pothos that my mom propagated in a little vase of water. I was so afraid to lose it and so I never touched it. That 1 leaf and a bunch of roots survived for 11 years, I finally planted it in a pot of soil recently. 3 leaves so far ☺️🥰
I'm sorry for the loss of your daughter I can't imagine such pain but what a neat blessing to have the one plant survive and it be from your Mom to bring you joy . How is your pothos doing now?
I've got a sprig ( two tiny leaves) that snapped off some plant. Refused to throw it so put it in a tiny jar with three tablespoons of water. After three weeks one tiny root appeared. Hopefully there will be another before Christmas.
I have a golden pothos that has been in my family for 70 years and has been propagated numerous times. I was finally given my own cutting but I have a black thumb and am so scared of killing it! So, thanks for this video!
@@jlevine8018 fantastic! They are alive and well, I even propagated some and planted it in another pot and it's doing great too. I just water them when I remember to and that's it.
I got a golden pothos as a gift and she’s my first house plant ever and I’m obsessed with her and she makes me so happy, and she’s so beautiful and green and she’s growing so fast and she’s finally digging her Ariel roots from her vines inside her planter she’s my baby
I'm usually skeptical about any video title with "101" because they're usually not well thought out, but yours is very informative. I subscribed because of your attention to detail.
I just got my first Pothos cuttings from my grandmothers 50 year old plant that has never been repotted and it has no soil but it thrives in neglect and is beautiful!
Annika Ewing YES! My Marble Queen has no soil left either but once a week on dusting day I take it into the kitchen and flood it with water. She just comes to life. And she looks great the rest of the week too. Incredible plants. I’m glad you have one from your grandma. My stepmother has a 40 year one.
I just realized today that the lobby of my corporate office has 2 towers with vines and vines of green queen pothos wrapped around them. I'm itching to snip off a vine or 2(or 3) at the end of the day when nobody's looking. The maintenance staff is just going to trim it anyway once its overgrown. Might as well help them out...🤔
We use these in the aquarium hobby to soak up nitrates from our fish tanks, the plants love the excess nitrate and ammonia from fish waste, and the fish love the water quality that pothos offer. Less water changes, less maintenance.
@@GuacamoleyNacho They are placed on the aquarium top with just the roots hanging into the water. Some fish species will eat the roots, like goldfish so its not suitable for all. Never need to change water, unless doing filter maintenance, just top up when evaporating.
I live in hawaii, so i actually found one of these lovelies growing wild on the side of the road. im propagating some in my room atm. its growing great already! C:
When i was in kintergarden i was given this plant and i use to water it myself during its whole life and the plant grew to trail all around the kitchen ceiling! 30ish years later and I'm looking to give it another go 😀
About 25 years ago i had a small one of those, i was too young and had no clue how to take care of it yet it grew for almost 3 meters around my room. Sadly it started dying years after and I didn’t know what to do, Now i got a new young one again and glad i found this video to learn more this time.
I have a marble queen that I actually got a big box grocery store plant section. This grocery store obviously has a very dedicated and capable person running their plant section or a great supplier. The plants all seemed surprisingly happy. It was a great price and it’s climbing even in my lower light room.
i just bought a pothos today as my first houseplant! i think it’s a golden pothos, but im not totally sure as i’m new to plants. thanks for the video, my plant will appreciate it lol!
“one of the easiest to care for” me with my dying pothos in the corner🥲 i have so many thriving plants and my pothos is supposed to be the easiest out of all of them but i’m killing it😫
Oh I had missed that one!! I loooove all pothos plants, I have quite a few varieties and even more plants!! Useless info of the day: Pothos means lust/yearning Epipremnum means on (top of) a trunk Scindapsus was an ancient greek musical instrument with strings (similar to a lyra) 😊
@@epicgardening you're welcome!! Well, to be honest, except for the word 'pothos' which is still used, I had to look what the other words meant, because they did sound greek, but even I had no idea, because they are not commonly used ones 😸
Nice healthy plants and a fun video. Thanks.I constantly trim back my pothos and put the cuttings in wine bottles, water bottles or anything that will hold water, keep them topped up and have pothos all over my apartment. Super easy and forgiving plant
I’m renting a tiny apartment while I’m in college and I really only have a spot to put one plant, and I’m really interested in pothos because it seems doable and they’re so pretty! Thanks for the guide!
I'm getting my first pothos tomorrow and I'm so excited! I was a little nervous prior to watching the video, but after learning a bit more about the plant, now I'm just excited!!!
I've had these in both bright, indirect light, and in a dark room with one window located under an overhang of a deck. They are tough plants! ETA: I got a Pearls and Jade pothos and a Neon pothos at my local grocery store. They're very pretty.
My sister in law just gave me a golden pothos start today so I'm binging care videos lol it's my first ever pothos plant and I am super excited to grow it!
I have a Pothos N’Joy and man it’s struggling. It’s been my most difficult plant so far which is crazy since like you said most people find Pothos to be easy! I went on vacation and didn’t water it for 2 weeks…watered when I got home and half the leaves turned yellow/brown and died. Cut those off - repotted because the soil seemed parched and now the soil is molding and and plant looks like death. Going to try to cut up the survivors and propagate and start fresh! Fingers crossed! It was so pretty when I got it.
My coworker had pruned her golden pothos and gave me some even though I didn't want any. I've barely done anything to the things besides put them in a glass and change out the water every week and they are putting down major roots and hella new leaves. I can't wait to pot them!
Epic Gardening. Just giving an unwanted/not asked for update. I now have 7 houseplants in my bedroom at my place! I’m propagating my Pothos plants; like I saw in your other video! My plants are happy, healthy and so am I! Thanks for your advice and informational videos! I’ve learned so much!
For such a basic plant that you can find basically anywhere, I'm obsessed with them. I really want one of every variety. So far I have a golden, marble queen, and a neon, cebu blue, and a satin (even tho it's not a pothos). Out of all of those I searched the longest for the neon and my favorite one is definitely my cebu blue. I found all of mine at Walmart except the neon, I got it at lowes. Now I really want an n'joy!! They're so cute.
My daughter got a green queen as a gift. Sat in her dark bedroom looking sad for a year. I bought a house and she gave it to me. I put it near a window with 8 hours of light and this plant is practically SINGING in front of this window! A very happy plant indeed!
This was a great video!!! Subscribing now! My grandma is an Ohio/Florida snowbird that likes to collect native vines and air plants in the winter. I’ve always admired a beautiful two-toned yellow and white pothos plant that she had scavenged and potted. She would just leave it outside her trailer when she would come back to Ohio in the spring and it was still kicking when she got back in October. Last summer she brought it back to put by the pool for the summer. It turned completely yellow and started looking unhappy. She told me to take it home to see if I could rehab it. I stuck it on a balcony ledge in my house where it gets no direct light and most of the plant has turned a beautiful dark jade green . I have a vine that’s 13 feet long! It’s my favorite of all my plants and I propagated plants for my kids to take with them someday. Hopefully we’ll all always have a part of my grandmas Florida jungle scavenge! 😜♥️
My mom gave me hers before she passed. I've struggled with it til where I had to cut all the vines and propagate them. It seems to be responding better.
HOW can your pothos be so BIG?? even before they start to trail? i thought they got bigger by age or only by giving them a pole or special special nursery poison only available in the buiz?? im desperatly trying to find someone who talks more about how to get them BIG (not just small leaf + stretchy all over the room) i want HUGE GIGANTIC ones like your green queen.
did you figure out where or how to get a potos huyge leaves? is it variety or just because of light and humidity? i know how to make pothos bushy. but my marble queen and varigated one have medium sized leaves.
Cebu blue pothos is my favorite , I got it as a few cuttings and had no idea it existed but it is available to buy online though a bit on the rare side
I had a Pothos when I was in college in the United States that I started from a cutting from a friend. His house looked alot like your house - lots of different plants inside. I don't know the name of the variety but it was variegated green and white. Some leaves had big patches of solid green or white and other patches of mottled green and white. It put up with a bit of abuse - forgetting to water it at times, I dont remember ever fertilizing or potting it on and it grew long vines - 6 to 8 feet - and never dropped a leaf. I gave it back to my friend when I returned to Canada after college and he was pleased by its growth too.
I have always had several pothos throughout my house, the most recent house I moved into they have completely halted growth. Not dying, but not growing either. Plenty of light, no change in watering, it’s really weird.
My favorite variety of pothos is a tie between the silver satin and the Manjula (Harlequin) pothos. Pothos 'N Joy is also really cool with the high contrast of white and dark green variegation.
Thanks so much for the advice! I just picked up a Pothos today at Walmart and I was worried about lighting. I have South and West facing windows but I placed my plant on top of my writing secretary along the south wall of my room. Hopefully, it will do fine.
I'm having mine on my office desk which isn't close to any window. However, I put it near a South facing window in weekends so it gets its needed sunlight dose.
Thank you for sharing this information. I’m into plants now and my son gave me a pothos golden which I didn’t know about it but after watching your video I’ll try my best to take care of it.
Hello Kevin, fantastic information, did not know that about the pothos not flowering. My favorite is the Marble queen, mine is pretty big, But, this past summer I found a 4 inch pot of Manjula, wasn't sure what it was at first. I found it at walmart- marked as Pearls and Jade, which I also have a huge one and a small one. One I found 2 weeks ago at our nursery- it is a neon marble queen? , so pretty. Looks just like a marble queen but bright neon green, and variegated. Okay maybe I do not have a favorite, love them all! Happy growing!
Hello! Two things: which soil would you recommend from a store like Lowe’s? And also, do pothos need to be moved to a bigger pot as they grow? Especially if we re-add clippings? Or can they stay in the same hanging basket and conform to its home?
Organic soil. You don't have to move to a bigger pot they thrive when root bound. You can take clippings and just pin it down in the dirt of the same pot or can propagate it in a new pot. Just take a clipping and put it in water. When you see roots growing you can put it in soil.
i was recently given a pothos from a friend who was moving and apparently it’s a satin pothos! pretty cool! it has three strands in the pot, i took the least healthy looking one and put it in a wine bottle a couple days ago and it hasn’t sprouted any roots yet but i believe in it, i sprayed some plant food on it. the others had kinda trailing ends that didn’t have leaves or had very few leaves, i cut those off because i figured that was probably for the best
I have the golden pothos but no one knows where it came from. Lol. My Mom does not remember and I just remember it being this one leaf plant. I now use it in my Betta fish bowl and it has about ten leaves. Also today my Mom got a package in the mail from my great grandmother and it had seven pothos plants! Two of them are the gorgeous marble queen which I have been wanting for so long. The rest I think are all golden pothos. I am not sure on two of them because It is just stems but they are alive. I put them in water with the smaller pothos from the bunch and now I just have to wait. They are so amazing and beautiful! I love them so much. I cannot wait to start propagating them and have my own pothos jungle in my bathroom and in my fish bowls. Hehehe. I have four fish bowls. I can't wait to have marble queens in them too. I'm excited!
@@GuacamoleyNacho I never did it. I had Betta fish. I just put the plant in and made sure it stayed at the top and not rooted in. They loved it. They looked happy and the plants looked happy too.
I have Golden, Marble Queen, literally three leaves of a formerly lustrous Jade N Pearl, and I mistakenly have what I thought was a Silver Pothos. Come to find out it's a Silver Philodendron.
I just got a marble queen and a pothos picta last week and I live in the basement of a house. I'm so excited for my babies to grow. I never thought I'd be able to keep anything alive besides a cactus or succulent.
@@sarahkanieski8293~ My experience/observation was noticing my luxuriant spider plants actually being decimated by close proximity to aggressively growing Pathos plant. I lost about five of my six pots of spider plants!
My mom has been growing these for years and I believe her oldest plant is nearly as old as I am. She does place nails around the walls and hangs the longer vines over the nails it looks very cool.
I was wondering why all of my soil propagated pothos died in a matter of days! I thought I did something wrong and come to find out they prefer water propagation.🤦🏽♀️ I just ordered a 36 pack of glass test tubes. I’m about to be SO unhinged propagating making Frankenstein style pothos and no one can stop meeee!!!😈😈😈🪴🪴🪴
I have a pothos that I brought for my fish tank. Lots of people out the roots in the tank and then let them trail. But not matter how I try the pothos just isn’t doing well. It’s lost all but 3 of its leaves and since I brought it and hasn’t grown in length at all. I’ve tried fertilising the tank, moving into more light, less light. Didn’t help. I’ve put it in soil, put it on my window ledge because I read that they like bright light, didn’t help. Moved it more into shade because some people said that direct light burns them, didn’t make any difference. I’m at my wits end and just don’t know what to do because everyone says these plant are so easy to grow and sooo hardy and so great and yet the one I’ve got is 2 leaves away from being dead!
I cant for the life of me seem to get my pothos to grow, they dont grow very fast and when they do grow its all one sided. I cant get the fuller look. :-(
I just got a golden pothos today :) I have a medium size aloe Vera both plants seem low maintenance so that’s why they are my first but the golden pothos was one of my mom had a very tall one and the vines wrapped around the ceiling and I loved that. Want the same.
I'm a total newb when it comes to houseplants. My favorite so far are Neon Pothos. I had purchased 3" starters from Amazon. I re-potted them in a white, rectangular, self-watering planter on top of my toilet tank. No other room needs air purifying plants more than my bathroom. :)
@@GuacamoleyNacho I can't tell, either, so I'm not sure if the Neon Pothos plants I had were producing cleaner air. That bathroom didn't have windows at the time and had a definite mildew smell I needed to get rid-of. I had read that certain plants clean the air so I went with a few Neon Pothos. I loved the size and colors of the leaves, ease of care and the fact that the plant didn't need much light. I later had to add a small fan for ventilation because the plant's health started going downhill, but with the Neon Pothos I also noticed within a couple of days of purchasing that the bathroom no longer had a mildew smell!
My fav is Marble queen, i also have green queen and golden pothos, would love to add neon and satin to my collection. Marble queen and freen queen i brought it from india to a gulf country where i live now and its growing well in water and soil. Golden pothos was gifted to me by a friend. Very easy to maintain, love growing pothos
I have a golden pothos I nicknamed lady bug. My mom got it for me when it was tiny in a lady bug pot. Its huge now and I've made 3 other plants from it, one of which is kept in just water. Being able to see the roots grow is great! I also have a silver pothos which is pretty too.
Great vid! Instant follow. I have a Marble Queen that I bought the first time I saw one at the hardware store I work at. I had only previously seen the golden pothos on plant videos on youtube and didn't realize there was a type this variegated.
this was really cool, i juwst subbed. got my first house and i want to fill it with GREEN! pothos was my very first plant, i just got it this weekend. I am pretty good with outdoor plants, but indoors are a whole new game for me. my pothos looks like a mixture of the green queen and the other one with white/light green all over it. cant wait to see how it grows and eventually propagate it
my sister told me she wanted to buy new plants... so i’m getting her one of these for her birthday. i also got myself one because i wanna become a plant mom, which is why i’m here 🤣 ive only ever owned succulents and i cannot take care of those of my life depended on it so i thought i’d try something new for once. let’s hope this one doesn’t die :’)
Epic Gardening LOL...it's and island there will be edible plants there already. My statement was regarding if i could only take one houseplants ( to the island), it would be the pothos. Its just so esthetically pleasing.
It’s funny you should mention the idea Frankenstein Pothos with three different kinds. I just bought one today. I’m about to take it apart and see how many different plants I got in there. Keep a few for myself and sell the rest.
Pothos N'Joy and Neon Pothos are some of my favorites! I recently came across a Cebu Blue Pothos that I am swooning over!!! Their leaf has a blue tint and it is elongated. So stunning
@@epicgardening Check Walmart and lowes. both mine have had them but I'm in Florida so not sure about the stock in your area! - if all else fails let me know I'll send you a ton of cuttings! I have probably 30 cuttings starting to root right now!
i love your channel, especially houseplant videos as i live in a city and am just working with what i got at the moment. ever since i got LED bulbs as an additional light source for my pothos, they have been growing so fast!
I have a pathos plant I got from my grandmother's funeral 16 years ago it's almost died 3 times. Right now it's down to just one Vine and now that I see that you can propagate them I think I'm gonna do that.
What's your favorite pothos variety and where did you get it?

They're so cute.
Ahhh you have a Cebu Blue I'M JELLY
My daughter got a green queen as a gift. Sat in her dark bedroom looking sad for a year. I bought a house and she gave it to me. I put it near a window with 8 hours of light and this plant is practically SINGING in front of this window! A very happy plant indeed!
OMG! A HOT plant daddy?! Hello!
Adam Phan I know - and his voice...😛

Jk ^^ youre right~

This was a great video!!! Subscribing now! My grandma is an Ohio/Florida snowbird that likes to collect native vines and air plants in the winter. I’ve always admired a beautiful two-toned yellow and white pothos plant that she had scavenged and potted. She would just leave it outside her trailer when she would come back to Ohio in the spring and it was still kicking when she got back in October. Last summer she brought it back to put by the pool for the summer. It turned completely yellow and started looking unhappy. She told me to take it home to see if I could rehab it. I stuck it on a balcony ledge in my house where it gets no direct light and most of the plant has turned a beautiful dark jade green . I have a vine that’s 13 feet long! It’s my favorite of all my plants and I propagated plants for my kids to take with them someday. Hopefully we’ll all always have a part of my grandmas Florida jungle scavenge! 😜♥️
yvonne stefanski I wonder if all the chlorine and muratic acid from the pool were what was hurting it. I’m glad you “fixed” it. 👍🏻
My mom gave me hers before she passed. I've struggled with it til where I had to cut all the vines and propagate them. It seems to be responding better.
Beautiful plants you got there. Your potho's leaves are so huge. Love it!!
Blue pothos i live in Newfoundland i got my from a friend and i love it
Manjula Pothos is so beautiful, it’s my favorite.
HOW can your pothos be so BIG?? even before they start to trail? i thought they got bigger by age or only by giving them a pole or special special nursery poison only available in the buiz?? im desperatly trying to find someone who talks more about how to get them BIG (not just small leaf + stretchy all over the room) i want HUGE GIGANTIC ones like your green queen.
Part of these is the way they're propagated. There are a TON of individually propagated leaves in these pots to make it super bushy
Green queen also has bigger leaf than the golden potho, and much bigger than the marble, and the satin.
Ryan Singrossi I have seen Golden Pothos leaves that's 3Ft wide here in the wild. It's seriously SO common lol. They are VERY HUGE! 🤗🌱
did you figure out where or how to get a potos huyge leaves? is it variety or just because of light and humidity? i know how to make pothos bushy. but my marble queen and varigated one have medium sized leaves.
Amanda on "Planterina" has this exact video on how to make your plants get big leaves.. Check her out. She is fantastic with plants
Listening to ur voice plus what ur talking bout on plants is just so satisfying... Keep em videos coming 😘
Cebu blue pothos is my favorite , I got it as a few cuttings and had no idea it existed but it is available to buy online though a bit on the rare side
I really want to get my hands on that one!
Ana Dorsett oh my gosh i need to add one of these to my plant collection 😍
www.joshsfrogs.com/epipremnum-pinnatum-cebu-blue.html they're available here!!!
I need one.
Lowe's has Cebu blue... that's where I found mine
I had a Pothos when I was in college in the United States that I started from a cutting from a friend. His house looked alot like your house - lots of different plants inside. I don't know the name of the variety but it was variegated green and white. Some leaves had big patches of solid green or white and other patches of mottled green and white. It put up with a bit of abuse - forgetting to water it at times, I dont remember ever fertilizing or potting it on and it grew long vines - 6 to 8 feet - and never dropped a leaf. I gave it back to my friend when I returned to Canada after college and he was pleased by its growth too.
My favorite pothos plant is the marble queen 🤗 I bought in a little flower shop in Edmonton.
Fantastic variety!
Thank you for these tips. The specific way you covered everything was extremely helpful. Great detail and advice. Much appreciated
I have always had several pothos throughout my house, the most recent house I moved into they have completely halted growth. Not dying, but not growing either. Plenty of light, no change in watering, it’s really weird.
My favorite variety of pothos is a tie between the silver satin and the Manjula (Harlequin) pothos. Pothos 'N Joy is also really cool with the high contrast of white and dark green variegation.
N'Joy is great!
Thanks so much for the advice! I just picked up a Pothos today at Walmart and I was worried about lighting. I have South and West facing windows but I placed my plant on top of my writing secretary along the south wall of my room. Hopefully, it will do fine.
It'll do just fine, they're very tolerant
I'm having mine on my office desk which isn't close to any window. However, I put it near a South facing window in weekends so it gets its needed sunlight dose.
I just picked up a gorgeous marble queen pothos from Trader Joe's! My first one and I'm loving it
Nice! Trader Joe's for the win, baby!
My favorite is the Satin pothos and I just got one today called “pothos N’Joy”
That's a fantastic variety!
Thank you for sharing this information. I’m into plants now and my son gave me a pothos golden which I didn’t know about it but after watching your video I’ll try my best to take care of it.
Hello Kevin, fantastic information, did not know that about the pothos not flowering. My favorite is the Marble queen, mine is pretty big, But, this past summer I found a 4 inch pot of Manjula, wasn't sure what it was at first. I found it at walmart- marked as Pearls and Jade, which I also have a huge one and a small one. One I found 2 weeks ago at our nursery- it is a neon marble queen? , so pretty. Looks just like a marble queen but bright neon green, and variegated. Okay maybe I do not have a favorite, love them all! Happy growing!
No need to pick a favorite when they're all so awesome! Happy growing.
@@epicgardening Indeed! Happy growing!
Hey! I know you 😊
How's your studying going? I was watching your Chanel earlier
I also love clay pots for indoor plants. It's truly the best pot material
you should get a Peace lily and do a video on it!
Will do!
I bought a golden pathos because my sunroom is yellow and the variation just really complimented the room.
I just bought one today and I named it Sherman 😆! Lol
LOL nice
My mom got a Pothos plant when she gave birth to my brother 49 years ago and it's still alive.
Hello! Two things: which soil would you recommend from a store like Lowe’s? And also, do pothos need to be moved to a bigger pot as they grow? Especially if we re-add clippings? Or can they stay in the same hanging basket and conform to its home?
Organic soil. You don't have to move to a bigger pot they thrive when root bound. You can take clippings and just pin it down in the dirt of the same pot or can propagate it in a new pot. Just take a clipping and put it in water. When you see roots growing you can put it in soil.
i was recently given a pothos from a friend who was moving and apparently it’s a satin pothos! pretty cool! it has three strands in the pot, i took the least healthy looking one and put it in a wine bottle a couple days ago and it hasn’t sprouted any roots yet but i believe in it, i sprayed some plant food on it. the others had kinda trailing ends that didn’t have leaves or had very few leaves, i cut those off because i figured that was probably for the best
I love green queen.. I have never seen that. I have only seen the variegated variety which bores me.
Yeah, it's one of the funny plants where the non variegated variety is more Uncommon!
Thats why i hunted done a jade pothos, so simple and solid dark green.
Down*
One of my Marble Queen tendrils reverted back to solid green, so I kinda got a Green Queen, except is grows as slow as the Marble Queen.
I'm just beginning to grow houseplants, and your videos are helping so much! Thank you
So glad to hear this!
The basic “B” pothos was my first house plant!
Also, this is a good lookin plant man 😎
You're too kind!
I have the golden pothos but no one knows where it came from. Lol. My Mom does not remember and I just remember it being this one leaf plant. I now use it in my Betta fish bowl and it has about ten leaves. Also today my Mom got a package in the mail from my great grandmother and it had seven pothos plants! Two of them are the gorgeous marble queen which I have been wanting for so long. The rest I think are all golden pothos. I am not sure on two of them because It is just stems but they are alive. I put them in water with the smaller pothos from the bunch and now I just have to wait. They are so amazing and beautiful! I love them so much. I cannot wait to start propagating them and have my own pothos jungle in my bathroom and in my fish bowls. Hehehe. I have four fish bowls. I can't wait to have marble queens in them too. I'm excited!
@@GuacamoleyNacho I never did it. I had Betta fish. I just put the plant in and made sure it stayed at the top and not rooted in. They loved it. They looked happy and the plants looked happy too.
where did you get your "propagation station"?
Amazon
My favourite are jade pothos and neon pothos got those from garden goods direct ,I also luv the marble queen pothos
Yeah, I love neon so I'm hunting one down!
I have Golden, Marble Queen, literally three leaves of a formerly lustrous Jade N Pearl, and I mistakenly have what I thought was a Silver Pothos. Come to find out it's a Silver Philodendron.
They're commonly confused!
I just got a marble queen and a pothos picta last week and I live in the basement of a house. I'm so excited for my babies to grow. I never thought I'd be able to keep anything alive besides a cactus or succulent.
"it's not a crime, it happens all the time!" 🤣
this creature is so easy to take care of. mine trails really long, great for indoor
Interesting side note: Spider plants are NOT companion plants with Pothos.
Great tip there Marie!
Will they not survive together? Good to know because I've been considering mixing a few of my plants
@@sarahkanieski8293~ My experience/observation was noticing my luxuriant spider plants actually being decimated by close proximity to aggressively growing Pathos plant. I lost about five of my six pots of spider plants!
My mom has been growing these for years and I believe her oldest plant is nearly as old as I am. She does place nails around the walls and hangs the longer vines over the nails it looks very cool.
I was wondering why all of my soil propagated pothos died in a matter of days! I thought I did something wrong and come to find out they prefer water propagation.🤦🏽♀️ I just ordered a 36 pack of glass test tubes.
I’m about to be SO unhinged propagating making Frankenstein style pothos and no one can stop meeee!!!😈😈😈🪴🪴🪴
I have a pothos that I brought for my fish tank. Lots of people out the roots in the tank and then let them trail. But not matter how I try the pothos just isn’t doing well. It’s lost all but 3 of its leaves and since I brought it and hasn’t grown in length at all. I’ve tried fertilising the tank, moving into more light, less light. Didn’t help. I’ve put it in soil, put it on my window ledge because I read that they like bright light, didn’t help. Moved it more into shade because some people said that direct light burns them, didn’t make any difference. I’m at my wits end and just don’t know what to do because everyone says these plant are so easy to grow and sooo hardy and so great and yet the one I’ve got is 2 leaves away from being dead!
I cant for the life of me seem to get my pothos to grow, they dont grow very fast and when they do grow its all one sided. I cant get the fuller look. :-(
Don't stress about the fuller look, that's almost always from planting many cuttings in one pot
Thank you for sharing this very Educational video i love the pothos
I just got a golden pothos today :) I have a medium size aloe Vera both plants seem low maintenance so that’s why they are my first but the golden pothos was one of my mom had a very tall one and the vines wrapped around the ceiling and I loved that. Want the same.
I'm a total newb when it comes to houseplants. My favorite so far are Neon Pothos. I had purchased 3" starters from Amazon. I re-potted them in a white, rectangular, self-watering planter on top of my toilet tank. No other room needs air purifying plants more than my bathroom. :)
Lovely!
@@GuacamoleyNacho I can't tell, either, so I'm not sure if the Neon Pothos plants I had were producing cleaner air. That bathroom didn't have windows at the time and had a definite mildew smell I needed to get rid-of. I had read that certain plants clean the air so I went with a few Neon Pothos. I loved the size and colors of the leaves, ease of care and the fact that the plant didn't need much light. I later had to add a small fan for ventilation because the plant's health started going downhill, but with the Neon Pothos I also noticed within a couple of days of purchasing that the bathroom no longer had a mildew smell!
So good. You are a great communicator. Very pleasant.
My fav is Marble queen, i also have green queen and golden pothos, would love to add neon and satin to my collection. Marble queen and freen queen i brought it from india to a gulf country where i live now and its growing well in water and soil. Golden pothos was gifted to me by a friend. Very easy to maintain, love growing pothos
My favorite Pothos is the green queen, thank you for the information
I have a golden pothos I nicknamed lady bug. My mom got it for me when it was tiny in a lady bug pot. Its huge now and I've made 3 other plants from it, one of which is kept in just water. Being able to see the roots grow is great! I also have a silver pothos which is pretty too.
Incredible, you can really have an unlimited amount just from one mother plant!
Great vid! Instant follow. I have a Marble Queen that I bought the first time I saw one at the hardware store I work at. I had only previously seen the golden pothos on plant videos on youtube and didn't realize there was a type this variegated.
this was really cool, i juwst subbed. got my first house and i want to fill it with GREEN! pothos was my very first plant, i just got it this weekend. I am pretty good with outdoor plants, but indoors are a whole new game for me. my pothos looks like a mixture of the green queen and the other one with white/light green all over it. cant wait to see how it grows and eventually propagate it
my sister told me she wanted to buy new plants... so i’m getting her one of these for her birthday. i also got myself one because i wanna become a plant mom, which is why i’m here 🤣 ive only ever owned succulents and i cannot take care of those of my life depended on it so i thought i’d try something new for once. let’s hope this one doesn’t die :’)
Pothos are THE BEST plants ever. If i could only choose one, (stranded on an island...lol), would definitely be the Pothos. Timeless Classic.
I'd pick something edible but pothos would be a close second 😉
Epic Gardening LOL...it's and island there will be edible plants there already.
My statement was regarding if i could only take one houseplants ( to the island), it would be the pothos. Its just so esthetically pleasing.
In Jamaica these grow wild, and the leaves grow bigger than toddlers...lol.
This is the only person I trust you tubing plant tips from.
This taught me so much. I really want to get one of these this next spring. I can’t wait to start a pothos jungle as well lol
Love the mixing cuttings idea, I recently did the same with Neon Pothos and Jade Pothos cuttings.
Smart!
LOVE LOVE LOVE your videos . . . I am the quintessential brown thumb, so seeing you with your ultra green thumb in propagation mode gives me joy.
Thank you so much! Don't worry, we'll get your green thumb in action soon
It’s funny you should mention the idea Frankenstein Pothos with three different kinds. I just bought one today. I’m about to take it apart and see how many different plants I got in there. Keep a few for myself and sell the rest.
Pothos N'Joy and Neon Pothos are some of my favorites! I recently came across a Cebu Blue Pothos that I am swooning over!!! Their leaf has a blue tint and it is elongated. So stunning
I need to lock down the Cebu Blue
@@epicgardening Check Walmart and lowes. both mine have had them but I'm in Florida so not sure about the stock in your area! - if all else fails let me know I'll send you a ton of cuttings! I have probably 30 cuttings starting to root right now!
I love you, Epic Gardening
i love your channel, especially houseplant videos as i live in a city and am just working with what i got at the moment. ever since i got LED bulbs as an additional light source for my pothos, they have been growing so fast!
Incredible! Yeah, if you give them a healthy dose of light they respond QUITE fast.
Baltic blue pothos - Walmart costa farms - leaves fenestrate early on. Thinner shaped leaves.
Definitely a Jonathan Frakes sort of look to our host. Well done #1.
Thanks for sharing. Your pothos look so full. Good to see other varaients❤️
I have a pathos plant I got from my grandmother's funeral 16 years ago it's almost died 3 times. Right now it's down to just one Vine and now that I see that you can propagate them I think I'm gonna do that.
