Snow Queen Pothos - A Winter Wonderland in Your Home

At first glance, the Snow Queen Pothos may appear akin to its Marble Queen counterpart, but its extreme variegation sets it apart as a true gem in the Pothos family. While it craves a bit more light to compensate for the reduced green areas on its leaves, the care routine remains as easy as other Pothos varieties. One remarkable benefit of the Snow Queen is its naturally compact growth pattern, preventing the plant from becoming 'leggy' as its vines extend, ensuring a consistently lush appearance.

A Brief History of the Snow Queen Pothos

The Snow Queen Pothos is a cultivar of the widely popular Epipremnum aureum, which originates from the tropical regions of Southeast Asia. The Snow Queen cultivar became popular in the houseplant world for its distinct and enhanced variegation compared to the more common Golden Pothos. This cultivar was selectively bred for its color pattern and was introduced to the houseplant market in the late 20th century. Its popularity continues to grow as more plant lovers appreciate the aesthetic appeal and resilience of this unique variety.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Shipping

    How do you ship your plants?

    We carefully package each plant with love by hand right from our shop in Brooklyn. Extra steps are taken to ensure that every leaf arrives in pristine shape by using polyfill and encapsulating the plant in a protective paper sleeve. The soil is also hydrated before shipping so that the plant has plenty of water for it's travel to your doorstep. We offer several shipping speeds, so please choose the one that you feel comfortable with depending on your location. 

    Will my plant look like the one on the website?

    Awesome question, we're glad you asked. Given the nature of our plant shop, we're constantly moving plants in and out of the shop, making it difficult and borderline impossible to keep an exact picture of each plant. In addition to the constantly rotating crop, we often grow in batches of 6, 12, or sometimes more! With this quantity we are unable to take a photo of each and every plant. The photos that we attach to each product listing is going to be of a plant that represents the average size and fullness of that set of plants. Some may be slightly larger or smaller, but in general, similar.

    Do you include heat packs with your plants?

    We offer Heat Packs for sale separately from the plants in 40, 60 and 72 hour increments. Please add a heat pack or two to your order if you live in an area where your order may be affected during transit by cold temperatures. We are not responsible for orders that are placed and damage is incurred to the plant if a heat pack is not purchased.

    Which heat pack should I choose?

    Heat packs come in three different increments, so please choose the appropriate hour increment depending on the speed of shipping that you choose during checkout. For example, if you choose a cheaper shipping option that will take longer, please select the 72 hour heat pack. If you've chosen a shorter method of shipping, the 40 or 60 hour increment would work! We like to encourage our customers to always get more than you need, just to be on the safe side!
