A plant even easier to grow than pothos, it bursts into a full pot as soon as it touches water, lush green all year round

This plant is called thousand-leaf spider ivy; it feels a bit like a mini version of pennywort, with small, round leaves that naturally trail down. It looks much better than pothos, and more importantly, it is easier to grow than pothos, staying lush green all year round. In the winter in the south, even kept outdoors, it will not freeze to death.

Thousand-leaf spider ivy, also known as thousand-leaf grass and thousand-leaf vine, is a perennial evergreen shrub. Whether placed in a study or a living room, its trailing growth easily forms a ball-of-flowers shape. It is basically a hands-off ornamental plant; watering once every few days is enough.

Care tips for thousand-leaf spider ivy:

1. It is spring now, so water once every 5-7 days; in summer, water once every 2-3 days. You can often mist the leaves to increase air humidity;

2. If you want thousand-leaf spider ivy to quickly reach a full-pot state, fertilizer is essential. During the vigorous spring growth period, apply a liquid fertilizer mainly based on nitrogen once every 2 weeks. If you do not have that, directly applying a slow-release compound fertilizer also works;

3. Thousand-leaf spider ivy likes cool shade and cannot be exposed to strong sun. Placed indoors in a bright, ventilated spot, it will grow very well;

4. To make the plant fuller and better shaped, it is recommended to prune once in spring when thousand-leaf spider ivy begins to sprout, cutting off the overly long, overly dense and old branches.
