Lighting

Light Requirement: Medium Light (Medium Indirect Light) to High Light (Bright Indirect Light)

The Neon Pothos thrives in medium to high indirect light. To maintain its bright neon color, it needs more light than other Pothos varieties. If placed in low light, the neon color may become dull. Avoid direct sunlight, which can easily burn its leaves.

Watering

Quick Tip: Allow soil to completely dry out before watering.

The Neon Pothos is sensitive to overwatering, which is the most common cause of root rot. Water thoroughly when the soil is completely dry to the touch, and allow the excess water to drain from the pot. It will tell you it's thirsty when its leaves begin to slightly curl or droop. Reduce watering in the fall and winter.

Temperature

Preferred Temperature: 65º - 85º

The Neon Pothos prefers warm, stable temperatures. The ideal range is between 65-85°F. Keep your plant away from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.

Humidity

Preferred Humidity: 40 - 60%; Moderate Humidity

The Neon Pothos appreciates moderate humidity, but it is very adaptable and will thrive in average home humidity. Misting the leaves occasionally can help, especially in dry environments.

Additional Plant Care

Propagation
The Neon Pothos is one of the easiest plants to propagate by stem cuttings.New roots will form from the node within a few weeks.
Toxicity
The Neon Pothos is toxic to humans and animals. The plant contains calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation, swelling, and a burning sensation in the mouth and throat if ingested. It is important to keep the Neon Pothos out of reach of children and pets.
Repotting
The Neon Pothos is a fast-growing plant that may need to be repotted every 1-2 years to accommodate its expanding root system. The best time to undertake this task is during the spring or summer when the plant is actively growing. To begin, select a new pot that is slightly larger than the current one and ensure it has drainage holes. Use fresh, well-draining soil, and carefully remove the plant from its old container before placing it in the new one and filling in the sides with the fresh soil.
Pruning
Pruning your Neon Pothos is essential to maintain its shape and health. Use clean, sharp shears to prune away any yellowing or damaged leaves and trim back long, leggy vines to encourage a fuller, bushier plant. To do this, cut the vines just above a leaf node. An important tip is that the trimmed cuttings can be easily used for propagation, allowing you to create new plants.
Fertilizer
Neon Pothos plants benefit from regular fertilization during the growing season. Use a **balanced, water-soluble fertilizer diluted to half strength** once a month during the **spring and summer** growing season. It is important to remember to not fertilize during the fall and winter months when the plant is dormant.
Soil
The right soil is crucial for a healthy Neon Pothos. The plant prefers a well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter. A good mix is a standard potting soilamended with perlite to improve drainage. An important tip is to always use a pot with a drainage hole to ensure excess water can escape and prevent root rot.
