Guida alla cura

Luce

Bright, indirect light gives the strongest variegation, but pothos tolerates low to medium light well, making it very easy. All-green forms cope with shade; variegated ones lose pattern in low light. evitare il sole diretto.

Acqua

Water when the top 3-4 cm of soil dry out; pothos tolerates occasional drought far better than constant wetness. Drooping leaves signal thirst. Reduce in winter.

Substrato

Ordinary ben drenante miscela di terriccio with perlite.

Temperatura e umidità

Comfortable 18-29 °C; keep above 12 °C. Tolerates average humidity; higher gives larger leaves.

Concimazione

concimare mensilmente in primavera e estate with a equilibrato concime liquido at a mezza concentrazione.

Potatura

Trim regularly to keep it bushy or to control trailing length; cuttings root easily in water. ⚠️ tossico per pets and people (ossalato di calcios) if chewed.
