Plant Care & Growing Tips

Proper Pothos care is straightforward, ensuring your N’Joy Pothos live plant thrives and maintains its vibrant variegation. This resilient low light indoor plant is quite adaptable, making it an excellent choice for various indoor environments.

Light: The N’Joy Pothos prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its striking white and green variegation. A spot near an east or west-facing window where it receives indirect light for several hours a day is ideal. While it can tolerate lower light conditions, too little light may cause the white areas of the leaves to fade or revert to green. Conversely, direct sunlight should be avoided as it can scorch the leaves and damage the delicate variegation.

Watering: Water your N’Joy Pothos when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry to the touch. This plant prefers consistent moisture but is also tolerant of occasional drying out between waterings. Overwatering is a common issue and can lead to root rot, so ensure the pot has good drainage. Reduce watering frequency during the cooler, darker winter months. A good indicator that your plant needs water is when its leaves start to droop slightly.

Soil: Use a well-draining, all-purpose potting mix. A good mix will allow water to pass through easily while retaining enough moisture for the roots. Adding perlite or orchid bark to a standard potting mix can improve drainage and aeration, which is crucial for healthy root development for your variegated houseplant. Avoid heavy soils that can become waterlogged.

Temperature & Humidity: This tropical plant thrives in average household temperatures, ideally between 65-80°F (18-27°C). It does not tolerate cold drafts or temperatures below 50°F (10°C). Average household humidity is usually sufficient, but the N’Joy Pothos appreciates higher humidity, especially in dry environments. You can increase humidity by misting the leaves occasionally, placing a humidifier nearby, or setting the pot on a pebble tray filled with water.

Fertilization: Fertilize your N’Joy Pothos every 2-4 weeks during the active growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer diluted to half strength. Reduce or stop fertilizing during the fall and winter when the plant’s growth slows down. Over-fertilization can lead to salt buildup in the soil, which can harm the plant.

Pruning: Prune your N’Joy Pothos to encourage bushier growth and maintain its desired shape. You can trim back long, leggy vines just above a leaf node. This also allows you to propagate new plants from the cuttings. Regular pruning helps keep your air purifying plant looking full and healthy.
