Epipremnum pinnatum 'Mint'

A beautiful climbing pothos cultivar featuring elongated green leaves decorated with creamy mint, pale green, and yellow-green variegation. Every leaf develops its own unique pattern. When allowed to climb a moss pole or similar support, mature leaves can become larger and develop dramatic splits and fenestrations.

☀️ Light

Provide bright, indirect light to maintain strong growth and vibrant variegation. Avoid intense afternoon sunlight, which can scorch the lighter portions of the leaves. Although it can tolerate medium light, lower light may result in slower growth and less pronounced variegation.

💧 Water

Water thoroughly when the upper 1 to 2 inches of soil feel dry. Allow excess water to drain completely and never leave the plant sitting in standing water. Overwatering can cause yellow leaves and root rot.

🌱 Soil

Use a loose, well-draining aroid mixture containing potting soil, orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir or peat moss. Always use a container with drainage holes.

🌡️ Temperature & Humidity

This tropical plant prefers temperatures between 65°F and 85°F. Average household humidity is generally suitable, but moderate to high humidity will encourage faster growth and healthier foliage. Protect it from cold drafts and temperatures below 55°F.

🌿 Fertilizer

Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer diluted to half strength. Reduce or discontinue fertilizing during the cooler months when growth naturally slows.

🪴 Growth Habit

Epipremnum pinnatum ‘Mint’ can trail from a hanging basket or climb using its aerial roots. Providing a moss pole, plank, or trellis will encourage larger, more mature leaves and eventual fenestrations.

✂️ Maintenance

Prune long vines as needed to maintain the desired shape and encourage fuller growth. Wipe the leaves occasionally to remove dust and inspect regularly for common houseplant pests such as spider mites, thrips, scale, and mealybugs.
