2. Taxonomy & Classification
Order: Alismatales
Family: Araceae
Genus: Epipremnum
Species: Epipremnum aureum
3. Origin & Distribution
Native to the island of Moorea in French Polynesia.
Widely naturalized throughout tropical and subtropical regions worldwide.
Commonly cultivated indoors across North America, Europe, Asia, and beyond.
4. Visual Characteristics
Leaves: Glossy, heart-shaped leaves with marbled yellow or white variegation on green.
Stems: Slender, creeping or climbing stems with aerial roots that cling to supports.
Juvenile Form: Smaller leaves without extensive variegation; mature indoor plants maintain similar form but larger.
5. Size & Dimensions
Vine Length: Indoors typically 1–6 m (3–20 ft) when supported; 1–2 m when allowed to trail.
Leaf Size: 8–30 cm (3–12 in) long, 5–20 cm (2–8 in) wide.
Growth Rate: Moderate to rapid under optimal conditions.
6. Light Requirements
Prefers bright, indirect light for best variegation and growth.
Tolerates low light but may become leggy and lose variegation.
Avoid direct midday sun to prevent leaf burn.
7. Watering Needs
Allow the top 2–3 cm (1 in) of soil to dry out between waterings.
Water thoroughly until excess drains; discard any standing water.
Reduce frequency during cooler months when growth slows.
8. Soil & Potting
Use a well-draining, aerated potting mix (peat-based with perlite or coarse sand).
Ideal pH: Slightly acidic to neutral (6.1–6.5).
Repot every 1–2 years or when root-bound, preferably in spring.
9. Temperature & Humidity
Temperature: Optimal 18–29 °C (65–85 °F); should not fall below 10–13 °C (50–55 °F).
Humidity: Prefers moderate to high (40–80%); tolerates average indoor levels.
Benefits from occasional misting or placement on a humidity tray.
10. Fertilization
Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer (e.g., 20-20-20) at half strength.
Fertilize every 4–6 weeks during spring and summer active growth.
Cease feeding in autumn and winter when growth slows.
11. Maintenance & Care Level
Low maintenance; well suited for beginners.
Prune vines to control length, encourage bushier growth, and remove yellowing leaves.
Wipe leaves occasionally to remove dust and improve photosynthesis.
12. Growth & Propagation
Propagation: Stem cuttings with at least one leaf node root easily in water or moist soil.
Rooting Time: 2–4 weeks for visible root development.
Training: Use moss poles, trellises, or allow to cascade from hanging baskets.
13. Common Problems
Yellow Leaves: Often due to overwatering or poor drainage.
Brown Leaf Tips: Caused by underwatering, low humidity, or salt buildup.
Pests: Can attract mealybugs, spider mites, and scale insects.
Diseases: Prone to root rot if left in soggy soil; leaf spot in overly humid, stagnant conditions.
14. Benefits & Uses
Air Purification: Removes indoor pollutants such as formaldehyde, benzene, and xylene.
Decorative: Ideal for hanging baskets, shelves, desks, and living walls.
Well-being: Enhances indoor ambiance, reduces stress, and boosts mood.
15. Toxicity & Safety
Contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals; toxic if ingested by pets or humans.
Ingestion may cause oral irritation, drooling, vomiting, and difficulty swallowing.
Keep out of reach of children and animals; wear gloves when handling if sensitive.
