Pothos Plants Guide for Beginners
Pothos plants, scientifically named Epipremnum aureum, are trailing vines native to the Solomon Islands in the South Pacific. Though they go by many names-devil's ivy, money plant, or silver vine-they're beloved worldwide for their heart-shaped leaves and their remarkable ability to thrive in almost any indoor environment. In their natural habitat, these tropical plants climb up trees and other structures, reaching impressive lengths and developing large, fenestrated leaves (leaves with splits and holes) when mature. What makes pothos truly special for beginners is their incredible adaptability. These plants are the definition of low-maintenance. They'll forgive you if you forget to water them for a while. They'll tolerate low light conditions when you can't place them near a window. They'll even grow in water alone if soil seems too complicated. I often joke that pothos plants thrive on neglect-sometimes the less you fuss over them, the better they seem to do!The pothos plant has a distinctive growth pattern, with vines that can trail from hanging baskets, climb up supports, or simply sprawl across a tabletop. Their stems are sturdy yet flexible, and they produce aerial roots at the nodes (the little bumps where leaves emerge), which help them climb in the wild and make them incredibly easy to propagate at home.
