About

Epipremnum amplissimum Aurea shares the same underlying form and growth habit as Epipremnum amplissimum — elongate, elliptic to lanceolate, entire leaves on climbing stems with aerial roots growth — with gold-yellow sectoral variegation along the large, elongate, glossy entire leaf, sold interchangeably as 'aureum' or 'aurea variegated'.

Before You Buy

Shared checklist for Epipremnum amplissimum and its cultivated forms

  • 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

Care Guide

Growing Conditions

General care shared across all forms of Epipremnum amplissimum — cultivated forms may need brighter light or higher humidity than the plain species; check this form's Quick Facts above.

Substrate

Well-draining mix: 40% perlite, 40% potting compost, 20% orchid bark.

Watering

Water when the top 3–4 cm is dry. These are generally forgiving and will tolerate slight drought better than overwatering.

Humidity

50–70% preferred. Most varieties in this group are more adaptable to typical indoor conditions than true aroids.

Fertilising

Balanced liquid fertiliser at half strength every 2 weeks in spring and summer. Monthly in winter.

Repotting

Every 12–18 months when root-bound. These vining plants grow quickly and may need annual repotting in peak years.

Common Problems

Problem

Yellowing leaves

Cause

Overwatering or too little light

Fix

Allow to dry more between waterings; move to a brighter position

Problem

Loss of variegation (for variegated forms)

Cause

Insufficient light causing reversion to green

Fix

Move to a brighter position — variegated leaves need more light to maintain their pattern

Problem

Root rot

Cause

Overwatering or compacted substrate

Fix

Repot into fresh well-draining substrate; reduce watering frequency
