Epipremnum aureum| Golden Pothos ‘Marble Queen’
Golden Pothos are one of the most popular houseplants in the world and are well-known for their ease of growth, versatility, long life, and outright hardiness. They are living air purifiers that remove common household contaminants from the air, making them a healthy and attractive addition to your home
Pothos will grow in most soil conditions, dry or wet, and will even grow in pure water. They prefer to be in a bright, well-lit environment indoors, but they will tolerate lower light levels too, because they are a shade plant outdoors, after all. Golden Pothos will thrive as long as they receive adequate water and light. A perfect plant for hanging baskets, or if trained up a trellis or a moss pole it will produce impressive sized foliage. Fertilizer is optional for Pothos. If you use any at all, less is more.
‘Marble Queen’ Pothos is a variety distinguished by its highly variegated creamy white marbled leaves. The variegation starts off creamy white and as they age turn to a more pure white color. As with many variegated plants, the variegation will become more pronounced in brighter light. Because the leaves are not fully green, ‘Marble Queen’ will grow slower than other varieties.
As a means of troubleshooting, browning leaves are usually a result of under-watering or a lack of humidity, while yellowing leaves may come over-watering, exposed to too much direct sunlight, or if the plant is not provided with enough sunlight.

ROOTING INSTRUCTIONS:
How to prepare cuttings to root via rooting cubes inside a humidity dome.
- Upon arrival, give cuttings a new fresh cut on the bottom of the stem. Then set in a cup of water for a minimum of 15 minutes.
- After soaking, gently cut or scrape small marks into the bottom portion of the plant stem (½ inch) with scissors or a razor blade.
- Dip the scarred end of the stem into rooting gel or rooting powder (gel is superior). This can be done without rooting gel, but results are not as good.
- Insert the plant stem into a rooting cube (Oasis cubes, grow plugs, soil-cubes, rock-wool cubes, etc) and place into a nursery tray with a humidity dome over the top. One cutting per cube. Custom individual humidity domes can be made using plastic cups and/or plastic cling wrap.
- After the first 3-5 days, the humidity dome should be opened up or set ajar to slowly allow more air in as the plants start to root. At this point, the cubes should be allowed to become mostly dry before adding any more water.
- Once 2-3 roots grow out of the bottom of the root-cube, the plant can be transplanted into soil.
