Neon Pothos

  • Light: Neon pothos grow naturally as forest understory plants and can adapt to a wide range of partial lighting conditions. That being said, bright indirect light is best in order to keep the leaves vibrant and avoid leggy growth.

  • Water: Allow the top 2 to 3 inches of soil to dry out between waterings and then water thoroughly. Neon pothos are susceptible to root rot if their roots are left standing in water, so always ensure that your plant is in a pot with adequate drainage to ensure that the roots aren’t waterlogged.

  • Pet-Friendly: Keep me out of reach of furry friends and little people

These bright pothos are low-maintenance and easy to care for. They can adapt to a range of lighting conditions, and while they appreciate regular watering, they bounce back easily if you forget to water them every once in awhile. When grown indoors, neon pothos can grow vines up to 10 feet long, so while pruning isn’t necessary for these tropical vines, you may wish to prune the vines every once and a while to keep their size under control.

Sad Plant Signs

Drooping Leaves

This is a sign that your plant is thirsty and in need of a good drink! Water your neon pothos and the leaves should perk back up.

Brown Tips

Underwatering or excessively dry conditions can cause brown tips on your neon pothos’ leaves. Try increasing how often you are watering your plant, and avoid placing your neon pothos near drafty vents or windows.

Leggy Growth

If your neon pothos is starting to look straggly, with long vines that have very few leaves, this is an indication that your plant needs more light. Try moving your pothos to a brighter location.
