Fun Fact About Pothos: The Marble Queen Can Change Color

A unique feature of the 'Marble Queen' Pothos is its ability to change leaf color depending on the amount of sunlight it receives. In bright, indirect light, the white variegation becomes more pronounced, while in lower light conditions, the plant may revert to a more solid green as it seeks to photosynthesize more efficiently.

This chameleon-like quality allows you to experiment with light levels to achieve the desired look, adding an interactive element to plant care.
