Dear reader friends, did you know? In our newly renovated homes, various decoration materials often release substances such as formaldehyde, toluene, and TVOC, which are harmful to our health. The best environmental expert in the home is the pothos plant. It can effectively absorb formaldehyde, toluene, allergens, pollen, smoke, and PM2.5; purify indoor air, and adsorb smog.

A natural environmental expert

Pothos likes moisture. In spring, summer, and autumn, the potting soil should be kept moist; if the soil is too dry, the leaves tend to turn yellow. However, overwatering that causes waterlogging will lead to root rot and withered leaves. Generally, in spring and late autumn, water once every 2 to 3 days, and in summer, water once a day to increase air humidity and keep the leaves bright green. In winter, watering should be controlled, and water only after the surface of the potting soil looks dry; conversely, watering too much and keeping the soil too wet will cause yellow leaves and root rot.

Easy to grow and keep alive

As a shade-tolerant foliage plant, pothos is very suitable for indoor cultivation and viewing, and is a rare indoor potted foliage plant. Care is very simple. Place the potted plant in a ventilated shady spot and avoid direct sunlight. When growing pothos outdoors, avoid direct sunlight, especially in summer, otherwise it will scorch the leaf edges, make new leaves smaller, and cause the leaf color to become dull and lusterless. For outdoor care, it can be placed in a well-ventilated shade shed, and the light transmittance of the shade shed should be about 50%.

For a three-room apartment, it is best to place four pots so that the air can be purified quickly and effectively

It can be grown at home or in the workplace
