Golden Pothos (Epipremnum aureum) is a popular and easy-to-care-for houseplant.

Here are some tips to help it thrive:

Light:

Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves.

Watering:

Water when the top inch or two of the soil is dry. Overwatering can lead to root rot, so ensure good drainage. In low light, reduce watering frequency.

Humidity:

Golden Pothos tolerates normal household humidity levels, but it will grow faster with higher humidity. Misting occasionally or placing it near a humidifier can help.

Temperature:

Ideal temperature range is between 60-85°F (15-29°C). Protect from drafts and sudden temperature changes.

Soil:

Well-draining, all-purpose potting soil is best. It doesn’t require special soil conditions but avoid compacted or overly heavy mixes.

Fertilization:

Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding in fall and winter.

Pruning:

Trim leggy vines to encourage bushier growth and to maintain a tidy shape. You can also propagate cuttings in water or soil.

Repotting:

Pothos will outgrow its pot over time. Repot every 1-2 years or when it becomes root-bound.

With these simple care guidelines, Golden Pothos should flourish and be an attractive, low-maintenance addition to your home!
