Epipremnum Aureum "Marble Queen" Pothos
Epipremnum aureum, or Marble Queen, is a tropical aroid vine in the family Araceae and native to French Polynesia. Like other closely-related aroids, this plant's leaves will change in shape with age (similar to a Monstera). The leaves can be found in the wild sprawled out along the ground and climbing up trees. Considered to be in the monstera subfamily Monsteroideae, these plants can truly grow monsterous! In mature plants, the leaves can grow to be longer than 3 feet long. Pothos have the ability to spontaneously generate variegation.
Basic Care
Place this plant in 4-6 hours of bright, indirect light. Within a few feet of a west or east-facing window will be ideal as too much direct sunlight will damage the variegated leaf pattern.
Marble Queens will flourish in temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C) and do best in humidity levels in the 40-60% range. It may be wise to invest in a humidifier if you suspect your household levels are low.
Once weekly watering in spring-summer and less often during winter is best. Allow the top 2 inches of soil to dry out a little in between waterings so the soil remains damp, not soggy, as overwatering this plant can cause fungal issues.
