Before you buy

  • 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 Aurea care

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.
Feeding
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

  • Yellowing leaves

    Cause: Overwatering or too little light

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

  • 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

  • Root rot

    Cause: Overwatering or compacted substrate

    Fix: Repot into fresh well-draining substrate; reduce watering frequency
