Pothos Plants

Shop pothos plants from L&J Nursery for easy-care indoor greenery, trailing shelves, hanging baskets and plant gifts. Pothos are popular because they adapt to many home environments, grow quickly in good conditions and look full without complicated care.

Most pothos grow best in bright indirect light but tolerate moderate indoor light better than many tropical plants. Let the soil dry partially between waterings, use a pot with drainage and trim vines to keep the plant full. Variegated pothos usually show their best color with brighter indirect light.

Choose pothos by pot size, fullness, leaf pattern and whether you want a hanging plant or a smaller starter. If you are building an indoor plant collection, pothos pair well with Hoya Plants, spider plants and other Houseplants.
