  This potted plant can be seen everywhere, whether in companies or all kinds of shops. Marble Queen Pothos is a perennial evergreen climbing herbaceous plant. Its stems and vines reach several meters in length and climb by means of aerial roots on the stems. The leaves grow densely, alternately, heart-shaped, 15-30 cm long and 8-15 cm wide, papery, glossy, light green or olive green, with irregular large yellow patches or stripes, entire; the petioles and stems are yellow-green or brown. It likes a cool, semi-shaded environment with relatively high air humidity. In summer it should be kept out of direct sunlight; it is relatively drought-tolerant, tolerant of poor soil, and relatively cold-tolerant, with an optimum growth temperature of 20-28°C. Marble Queen Pothos has wide adaptability, grows quickly, and requires only rough cultivation and management. During cultivation and management, in summer the plant should be sprayed with water more often, and a foliar fertilizer application should be carried out every 10 days to keep the leaves green and fresh. For potted seedlings, when the seedling grows 30 cm above the cultivation pole, it should be cut off; when the lower leaves have fallen off by 30%-50%, it should be discarded and replanted. Marble Queen Pothos is mainly propagated by cuttings. Select robust upper stem vines with leaves, 25-30 cm long, and insert them into a sand bed or directly into pots for cultivation, maintaining 85%-90% humidity. For pole cultivation, it is best to use terminal buds, 3-4 per pole. The editor of Yiqiwang below will introduce Marble Queen Pothos.

  How to Grow Marble Queen Pothos

  1. Watering: Marble Queen Pothos likes to live in a moist environment, so watering more is best. In summer the weather is hot and water dissipates quickly, so besides watering more, you should also spray the leaf surfaces. The amount of watering depends on the potting soil; larger Marble Queen Pothos plants should be watered more.

  2. Sunlight: Marble Queen Pothos likes a cool, semi-shaded environment with relatively high air humidity. It cannot be exposed to direct sunlight, otherwise the newly sprouted leaves will lose water and become smaller, with dull colors, and the leaf edges are easily scorched. In autumn and winter, Marble Queen Pothos can be placed in a bright spot indoors to receive photosynthesis.

  3. Temperature: Although Marble Queen Pothos does not like strong sun, it is still quite sensitive to temperature. If the temperature is too low, it is easily frostbitten. A room temperature of around 20 degrees is fine. If heating equipment is used, the leaves of Marble Queen Pothos should not be too close to it. Keeping the indoor temperature above 10 degrees allows Marble Queen Pothos to pass through winter safely.

  4. Fertilizing: Because Marble Queen Pothos grown indoors absorbs nutrients less abundantly than outdoors, it is recommended to apply fertilizer once every half month. You can buy fertilizer specially for pothos on the market. Or ask the florist and have them help choose fertilizer.

  5. Humidity: Marble Queen Pothos grows faster in an environment with relatively high air humidity. It is recommended to maintain indoor humidity, and a humidifier can be used to increase air humidity. A transparent plastic bag can be placed over the plant to create a mini greenhouse effect, but it should not exceed two hours.

  Tips for Growing Marble Queen Pothos

  Temperature - Marble Queen Pothos is relatively sensitive to the temperature of its growing environment. The temperature cannot be too high or too low. Its optimum growth temperature is between 20 and 30 degrees Celsius. If the temperature is below 15 degrees Celsius, or around 10 degrees Celsius, Marble Queen Pothos will freeze to death. Therefore, when growing it in winter, be sure to do a good job of keeping it warm, and it is usually best to keep it indoors.

  Light - Marble Queen Pothos likes to grow in a cool, semi-shaded environment and particularly avoids direct sunlight, so its light conditions should also be noted when growing it. To grow Marble Queen Pothos, just place it in a spot with some sunlight or semi-shade; appropriate sunlight exposure is enough, but it cannot be kept in direct sunlight for a long time, or this will be harmful to its growth.

  Water - Many people think Marble Queen Pothos needs a lot of water to grow, but in fact the opposite is true. Marble Queen Pothos is relatively cold-tolerant and does not need much water during the growing period, so it should not be watered too much during cultivation. When there is too much water, the roots of pothos are prone to rot and breed mosquitoes, which is even worse for pothos. In summer, when temperatures are high and water evaporates quickly, water can be appropriately increased; in winter, watering should be reduced, and watering once every two days is enough.

  Soil and Fertilizing - Marble Queen Pothos does not have high soil requirements. Generally, loose soil with good drainage can be used, but given the characteristics of pothos itself, slightly acidic soil can let it grow a little faster and healthier. As for fertilizer, Marble Queen Pothos has special fertilizer, and ordinary inorganic fertilizer is not of much use. During the growing period, fertilize more; during the slow growth period, reduce fertilizing. When fertilizing, liquid fertilizer can be applied by spraying.
