Scindapsus are evergreen climbers, clinging by roots to any surface, making them a great trailing plant for homes. Known as Devil's Ivy, Scindapsus 'Aureum' is almost unkillable, surviving in near darkness (hence the name) and needing very little care.
Watering & feeding
Water when the soil has slightly dried out. Water less in winter.
Pollutant Absorption Credentials
The Pothos has been shown help remove benzene, formaldehyde, trichloroethylene and xylene from the air. These toxins are given off by paints, varnishes, synthetic fibres, and glues, and can also be found in some aerosol cleaning products. It’s one of the most effective air-purifying plants so will be great in any room.

Decorative pot not included, available to buy here. The plant will be delivered in a plastic nursery pot.
For no fuss or mess you can put the plant in the growing pot it arrives in straight inside a decorative one. This also allows allows excess water to be drained after watering.
For a good fit the opening (not diameter) and height of the new decorative pot need to be several centimetres greater than the current growing pot.
Remember to take into account tapering, as the internal height of a pot will be measured from the centre to the top but the sides will taper in on a rounded pot.
