A pretty plant better known as Pothos. It is very popular for the versatility of its foliage, its coloring and its habit. The Pearls and Jade variety offers a variegated green and cream coloring. Its long stems fit very well in a hanging pot or in a climbing plant arrangement. Pothos are epiphytic plants, the aerial roots can be trained to climb a support. The strong point of Pothos is that it tolerates dark rooms very well, however its normally very rapid growth will be slowed down.
