Epipremnum aureum

Epipremnum aureum is a tropical climbing aroid with flexible vines, glossy heart-shaped leaves, and aerial roots that anchor to bark, moss poles, trellises, or other textured supports. In indoor pots it usually keeps its juvenile foliage, with green leaves marked by yellow to cream streaking, while supported mature plants can eventually produce larger, thicker leaves with a more divided outline.

This species is often called golden pothos, devil’s ivy, or simply pothos in everyday plant trade, although Pothos is also a separate botanical genus. The plant sold as Epipremnum aureum belongs in Araceae and grows naturally as a wet-tropical climber from Mo‘orea in the Society Islands, where its stems use aerial roots to move upward through humid forest structure.

Golden pothos traits at a glance

  • Evergreen aroid vine with trailing or climbing stems.
  • Glossy juvenile leaves with a broad heart-shaped base.
  • Green foliage with yellow to cream marbling and streaks.
  • Aerial roots that attach readily to moss poles, bark boards, or rough supports.
  • Node-based stems that can trail, climb, branch, or root from cuttings in indoor pots.

How this species climbs and fills a pot

Epipremnum aureum grows from nodes spaced along flexible stems. Each node can produce a leaf, an aerial root, and a new shoot, which makes the plant easy to prune, root, and train. In a hanging pot the stems cascade and create a loose curtain of foliage; on a vertical support the same plant directs growth upward and can develop larger leaves over time.

As a wet-tropical climber, Epipremnum aureum needs air as well as moisture around the roots. A loose substrate and a pot with drainage are essential. Warmth keeps growth active, while consistent bright indirect light helps leaves expand evenly and protects the glossy surface from scorch.

Care for strong vines and airy roots

  • Light: Place in bright indirect light or soft filtered light. The plant tolerates medium light, but very dim placement slows internode growth and can make vines thinner.
  • Water: Water when the upper 20–30% of the potting mix has dried. The stems recover well from slight drying, while saturated mix can weaken the fine roots.
  • Substrate: Use an airy aroid mix with bark, perlite, coco chips, or similar coarse material so water drains quickly and oxygen reaches the root zone.
  • Temperature: Keep between 18–28 °C for regular growth. Protect from cold windowsills, winter draughts, and temperatures below about 12–15 °C.
  • Humidity: Average indoor humidity is usually tolerated. Higher humidity helps new leaves expand more smoothly, especially on climbing stems.
  • Feeding: Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced fertiliser. Reduce feeding in winter or under low light.
  • Support and pruning: Let vines trail, or guide them onto a moss pole for stronger upward growth. Prune above a node to encourage branching and root cuttings from healthy stem pieces.

Problems that show up on older vines

  • Yellow lower leaves: Check whether the potting mix has stayed wet for too long. Let the mix dry further and improve drainage before watering again.
  • Brown, dry leaf edges: Look for irregular watering, strong sun, salt build-up, or dry heat near radiators. Flush the mix occasionally and move the plant away from hot air.
  • Long bare sections: Increase light gradually and prune leggy stems back to active nodes so new shoots can fill in closer to the pot.
  • Soft stems near the base: Inspect the roots and lower nodes. Soft, dark tissue usually points to overwatering, cold wet substrate, or poor aeration.
  • Sticky leaves or speckling: Check the undersides and stem joints for scale, mealybugs, thrips, or mites, then isolate and treat early.

Safety around pets and children

Epipremnum aureum contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals. Chewed leaves or stems can irritate the mouth, lips, tongue, and digestive tract, so keep the plant away from pets and small children. Wear gloves if your skin reacts easily to aroid sap.

Botanical name background

The genus name Epipremnum comes from Greek roots meaning “upon” and “trunk,” a reference to its climbing habit. The species epithet aureum means “golden,” matching the yellow-gold variegation associated with the classic cultivated plant.

#1 Tire Repair
Size: 16 oz
This stuff is Fantastic. I have a riding lawn mower and one of the front tires, which is small, had been running low for a couple of years, we took it off. to fill it with the liquiTube and you could see cracks all around the outside of the tire. The liquid tube oozed out of one of the cracks and sealed , immediately. My brother rolled the tire around real good before we put it back on the track lawn mower. It has been 3 days now and today I mowed for 1 1/2 hrs and the tire as full as it was the day we put in the LiquiTube. This stuff is fantastic, it really, really works!

Hard to install as instructed.
Size: 32 oz
Nearly impossible to get it in the tire through the valve. Yes I removed the valve core. Broke the bead on the tire and dumped it in. That worked great! So far no leaks. They should definitely redesign the installation method.

Been using it for 15 years! Not sure where the Neg reviews come from?
Size: 16 oz
I've been using Liquitube since around 2010. I use it religiously in my ATVs and lawn tractor tires. Since I've been using this stuff, I've never had a flat before. I've pulled out nails and slivers of steel out of my ATV tires but yet none of them lose air or go flat. I think some of the negative reviews come from improper use of the product or not enough of the product is being used in the tires. I think this come from variance in formula charts that Liquitube has had in the past on their bottles and on their website. The chart on their website wouldn't match the formula that was provided on the bottle. So I think alot of people get mixed up and not knowing the correct amount to add to each tire. Now Liquitube just puts pictures on the side of the bottle with an ounce measurement below each picture to tell people how to use it. But even that can be confusing. For instance, take the picture of the ATV that they show. Below the ATV it says 32oz. Now some people probably think the 32oz is for the entire ATV. Well that isn't the case. They want you to use 32oz Per Tire! Years ago Liquitube even used to say on the bottle to use 32oz per tire on an ATV. Now they just show a picture with an amount below it. Now you'll come to find out that the 32oz they recommend doesn't match up to the formula they tell you to use to calculate how much each tire is supposed to get. So if you use the formula provided, you come to find that it calculates out to use less product per tire than what the bottle tells you to use. So that's very confusing as well. So if you use it long enough, you'll be able to know how much each tire will need from experience. Just make sure there's enough on the inside of the tire to coat the entire inside as well as leaving a bit left over to circulate in the tire so it can be ready for a large puncture if that ever happens. All in all, it's a good product that does what it claims. It lasts for as long as the tire does and it doesn't freeze up in the cold either! 5 stars!
