Pothos

Brief Description

Pothos is a hardy, evergreen climbing plant with heart-shaped leaves that can be solid green or variegated with yellow or white. It is popular as a houseplant due to its easy care and ability to thrive in low light.

Care Instructions

Pothos prefer indirect light but can tolerate low light conditions. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry, avoiding overwatering. Fertilize every 4-6 weeks during the growing season and prune as needed to maintain shape.

Medicinal Value

Pothos is considered to have some air-purifying qualities, removing toxins such as formaldehyde and xylene from the air, though it is not used traditionally for medicinal purposes.
