This guide covers Cebu Blue Pothos (Epipremnum pinnatum ‘Cebu Blue’) and Baltic Blue Pothos (Epipremnum pinnatum ‘Baltic Blue’).

Choose a spot with bright, indirect light.

Keep the mix lightly moist with good drainage. Avoid leaving the roots in soggy soil.

Use an organic-rich potting mix that drains freely.

Moderate indoor humidity suits this species.

Keep it in a warm room away from cold air and drafts.

Check whether the plant needs a larger container every two to three years.

These vines can trail or climb. Give them a sturdy support to encourage mature growth and divided leaves.

Propagate using stem cuttings.

Watch for mealybugs, scale, thrips, and spider mites. Persistently wet roots can develop rot.

Toxic to cats and dogs if chewed. Insoluble calcium oxalate crystals can cause mouth irritation, drooling, and trouble swallowing. Keep out of reach.
