Pothos Scandens Care Instructions
Light Requirements: Pothos Scandens thrives in bright, indirect light, but it is also known for its ability to tolerate low light conditions. This makes it perfect for spots that don’t receive direct sunlight, such as offices, bedrooms, or bathrooms with little natural light. While it can adapt to lower light, its growth may slow down, and the variegation may become less vibrant. For best results, place it near a window where it will get indirect light throughout the day.
Soil Requirements: The Pothos Scandens prefers well-draining soil that retains moisture but doesn’t stay soggy. A general-purpose indoor potting mix works perfectly, or you can use a mix formulated for aroids or tropical plants. Make sure the container has drainage holes to prevent water from accumulating at the bottom, as this could lead to root rot.
Watering: Pothos Scandens is a forgiving plant when it comes to watering. It’s better to let the soil dry out slightly between waterings than to overwater. Water the plant when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry to the touch. During the growing season (spring and summer), you may need to water it once a week, but reduce watering in the winter when the plant’s growth slows. Always ensure that excess water drains away from the pot to prevent the roots from sitting in water.
Temperature: Pothos Scandens thrives in temperatures between 65°F and 85°F (18°C – 29°C). It can tolerate occasional fluctuations in temperature, but it should be protected from cold drafts and temperatures below 50°F (10°C). It’s best to keep your Pothos in a warm, consistently temperate spot indoors.
Fertilizing: Pothos Scandens doesn’t need much fertilizer to thrive, but feeding it every month during the growing season (spring and summer) will encourage more vigorous growth. Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer diluted to half strength. Avoid fertilizing in the winter when the plant is not actively growing, as it could result in over-fertilization.
Pruning and Maintenance: Pothos Scandens grows quickly, so regular pruning is recommended to keep the plant tidy and promote fuller growth. Trim any long or leggy stems to shape the plant and encourage branching. Use clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears to avoid damaging the plant. You can also propagate any cuttings to grow new plants if desired.
Repotting: Repot your Pothos Scandens every 1-2 years to refresh the soil and provide more space for the plant’s growing root system. When repotting, choose a pot that’s only 1-2 inches larger in diameter than the current pot. If growing outdoors, ensure the plant has enough space to climb or trail freely.
FAQs: Pothos Scandens (Climbing Aroid)
Q: How often should I water my Pothos Scandens?
A: Water your Pothos Scandens when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry. In general, watering once a week is fine during the growing season, but you can reduce this in the winter when the plant is not actively growing. Always ensure the soil drains well.
Q: Can Pothos Scandens grow in low light?
A: Yes, Pothos Scandens is known for its ability to tolerate low light conditions, making it an ideal plant for areas with limited natural light. However, it will grow more vigorously and maintain vibrant foliage with brighter, indirect light.
Q: How fast does Pothos Scandens grow?
A: Pothos Scandens is a fast-growing plant that can grow 6-12 inches per month in ideal conditions. With its quick growth and trailing vines, it’s perfect for covering surfaces or creating a lush display.
Q: Does Pothos Scandens purify air?
A: Yes, Pothos Scandens is known for its air-purifying properties. It can help filter out harmful toxins in your home, improving indoor air quality and creating a healthier living environment.
Q: Is Pothos Scandens safe for pets?
A: No, Pothos Scandens is toxic to pets. If ingested, it can cause mild to moderate symptoms like mouth irritation, drooling, or stomach upset. Keep it out of reach of pets to prevent any accidental ingestion.
Q: Can I train Pothos Scandens to climb?
A: Yes, Pothos Scandens is an excellent climber. You can train it to climb trellises, poles, or walls using soft ties or clips to encourage vertical growth. Alternatively, it also looks great trailing down hanging baskets or containers.
Q: Can I grow Pothos Scandens outdoors?
A: Yes, if you live in a warm climate (USDA hardiness zones 10-12), you can grow Pothos Scandens outdoors as a climbing vine or ground cover. It thrives in bright, indirect sunlight and requires protection from cold temperatures.
Q: Why is my Pothos Scandens turning yellow?
A: Yellowing leaves can be a sign of overwatering or poor drainage. Make sure the soil is allowed to dry between waterings, and ensure your pot has proper drainage. Yellowing could also occur due to nutrient deficiencies, low light, or temperature stress.
