Before You Buy
Species-specific things to check when evaluating a listing
- Ensure there is at least one healthy node present — a cutting without a node cannot produce new growth
- For variegated forms, check that the variegation pattern appears on the newest growth and shows no signs of reversion to green
- Inspect the underside of leaves for spider mites (fine webbing or stippling) which are common on pothos-family plants
- Confirm the cutting has visible roots or a healthy node before purchasing — unrooted cuttings require propagation experience to succeed
Epipremnum amplissimum Morphology
About Epipremnum amplissimum
Epipremnum amplissimum is a climbing aroid native to the humid tropical island forests of New Guinea and the western Pacific, where it climbs up tree trunks. It is characterized by slender rooting stems and elegant entire leaves. The mature leaf blades are elongate, elliptic to lanceolate, glossy green, and feature a clear pale midrib. The plant grows in a neat, well-spaced shingling or climbing habit with aerial roots, preserving its simple undivided foliage throughout its maturity, unlike many other Epipremnum species.

Care Guide
Epipremnum amplissimum Care Guide & Growing Conditions
Well-draining mix: 40% perlite, 40% potting compost, 20% orchid bark.
Water when the top 3–4 cm is dry. These are generally forgiving and will tolerate slight drought better than overwatering.
50–70% preferred. Most varieties in this group are more adaptable to typical indoor conditions than true aroids.
Balanced liquid fertiliser at half strength every 2 weeks in spring and summer. Monthly in winter.
Every 12–18 months when root-bound. These vining plants grow quickly and may need annual repotting in peak years.
Common Problems
Yellowing leaves
Overwatering or too little light
Allow to dry more between waterings; move to a brighter position
Loss of variegation (for variegated forms)
Insufficient light causing reversion to green
Move to a brighter position — variegated leaves need more light to maintain their pattern
Root rot
Overwatering or compacted substrate
Repot into fresh well-draining substrate; reduce watering frequency
The Large Epipremnum
Epipremnum amplissimum — 'the largest,' the most ample — from New Guinea to Vanuatu, produces adult leaves of considerable size relative to the Epipremnum species most people encounter in domestic cultivation. At accessible price tier. This is Epipremnum as it behaves in the wild rather than in a hanging pot: vigorous, large-leaved, inclined to climb with purpose. The Pacific Island distribution makes it biogeographically interesting as a genus member at the eastern limit of the Epipremnum range.
