PLANT CARE
Pothos plants prefer to be slightly dry rather than too wet. Water them thoroughly when the top inch of soil is dry to the touch, but do not let them sit in standing water as this can lead to root rot.
Pothos plants are adaptable and can thrive in a range of lighting conditions, from low to bright indirect light. However, they prefer bright, indirect light and will grow more slowly in low light.
Fertilize your Pothos every 2-3 months with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer.
Once a year you can repot but in between you can cut the plant by the shooting nodes and give it as a gift to that friend who just keeps smiling at your plant!
BREATHE WELL and enjoy nature until next time!
