Description

Meet the Golden Pothos – Your Next Easy-Care Houseplant

The ‘Golden Pothos’ variety of Epipremnum aureum is a houseplant classic and a staple on desks and office windowsills. It’s an easy-to-propagate and extremely adaptable plant known for thriving even under standard fluorescent lighting. However, this is a ‘get what you give’ plant, meaning the more light and care you provide, the more impressive the growth and variegation will be. If given something to climb, the leaves can grow even larger. You’ll know this plant needs water when it starts to droop, but it will perk back up after a good drink. Water it less in the winter when its growth naturally slows down.

Fun Fact About Pothos – The Comeback Kid of the Plant World

Golden Pothos may droop when thirsty, but don’t panic! It bounces back quickly after a good drink, making it one of the most forgiving houseplants. This hardiness has earned it the nickname "Devil’s Ivy," as it’s nearly impossible to kill.

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!
