Pothos bonsai: a small potted plant to experience spring colors

When first growing pothos, most people plant it in pots, because pots are easy to transport and will not dirty the indoors. Although growing pothos in pots is fine, everyone also needs to understand some knowledge about pothos bonsai. Below, the editor of No.1 Home Network will introduce the relevant content.


The first requirement for growing pothos is the soil quality. Try to choose some soil from rural fields, then add a little animal manure (such as chicken manure). Add as many dead leaves as possible and mix them into the soil, because the roots and stems of pothos prefer soft soil. In this way, the dead leaves can both serve as fertilizer and make the soil soft and breathable.
Everyone knows that for a newly renovated house, pothos is the first-choice plant. Because pothos is a very good air purifier, pothos is easier to grow when the air is relatively humid. Therefore, pothos is generally suitable for growing indoors. Pothos does not like direct sunlight and cannot be placed in the sun for a long time. It can be placed in the sun at intervals to let it enjoy some sunlight.
Pothos prefers water, so it should be watered regularly. The amount of water should preferably soak through the roots, and a spray bottle should often be used to spray mist-like moisture onto the leaves and the backs of the leaves to keep them moist.
You can plant a tree trunk in the pothos pot and let it grow upward along the trunk, or you can hang it in a higher place and let its vines trail down. I personally think this looks better and adds a lot of charm to the home.
Take the trailing vines and select branches and leaves with small fine roots from them to plant in a pot, or insert them into water. With careful cultivation, after some time, they will become another beautiful scene.
The pot size for pothos bonsai needs to be changed frequently, because pothos grows very quickly. If it is not changed often, it may not have enough space to grow, which will limit its growth and lead to problems such as deformity.
