Pothos is undoubtedly one of the most well-known and appreciated houseplants in the world. What makes it so captivating, in addition to its intense green color and tropical shapes, is also its extraordinary resilience.

This wonderful plant has heart-shaped leaves that make it unmistakable, and being a climbing plant it can be placed practically anywhere: it will adapt to any situation.

In addition to its beauty, the most fascinating thing about this plant is the ease with which it can reproduce, even from a single leaf.

To reproduce pothos you need, in addition to the plant, a pair of pruning shears, a glass vase and filtered water.

Start by cutting off a small stem from your pothos plant. Do this diagonally and immediately after a knot. If possible, cut two sheets to simplify the breeding process.

If one of the leaves is close to the node, we suggest removing it, otherwise it will rot when you place it in water.

Fill the glass jar halfway with water, then place our cut in it. Don’t forget to change the water at least 2 times a week.

When the first roots form, the plant is ready to be planted in the ground.

Basic care of pothos

• Pothos doesn’t need a lot of water. Water it twice a week, making sure not to create waterlogging. The pot should be well drained.
• Do not expose the plant to direct sunlight, as it could burn the leaves. The plant needs light, but it needs indirect light.
• Clean the pothus leaves occasionally with a damp cotton ball. Dusting the surface of the leaves will promote photosynthesis.
