Manjula Pothos

🌿 Basic Overview

• Scientific name: Epipremnum aureum ‘Manjula’

• Common names: Manjula Pothos, Variegated Pothos

• Family: Araceae

• Origin: Cultivar developed in the U.S., derived from golden pothos

• Type: Evergreen trailing or climbing vine

🌱 Appearance

• Large, heart-shaped leaves with variegation in shades of green, cream, and sometimes white.

• Leaves can be marbled or splotchy, making each leaf unique.

• Grows vigorously with trailing vines that can reach several feet indoors.

☀️ Light

• Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain variegation.

• Can tolerate low light, but variegation may fade and growth slows.

• Avoid direct sunlight — it can scorch the leaves.

💧 Water

• Water when the top 1–2 inches of soil are dry.

• Likes even moisture, but overwatering can cause root rot.

• Well-draining soil helps prevent soggy roots.

🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

• Appreciates moderate to high humidity, but adapts well to normal household conditions.

🌸 Growth & Care

• Easy to moderate — forgiving like other pothos varieties.

• Great for hanging baskets, trellises, or as a trailing tabletop plant.

• Can be pruned to encourage fuller growth and bushier vines.

Bottom watering is best
