Neon Queen Pothos

Caring for a Neon Queen Pothos involves balancing the needs of its vibrant "Neon" genes with the variegation typical of a "Queen" variety. Since yours is sourced from Habitat Plants + Coffee, it’s likely acclimated to indoor environments, but here is how to keep it thriving:

Light

• Bright, Indirect Light: This is crucial. To maintain the bright chartreuse color and any white/cream variegation, it needs plenty of light.

• Avoid Direct Sun: Harsh, direct afternoon sun can scorch the leaves.  

• Low Light Note: While it can survive in lower light, the "Neon" glow will fade to a duller green and the variegation may disappear.   

Watering

• The "Dry Out" Rule: Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry. Pothos are prone to root rot if they sit in soggy soil.  

• Visual Cues: If the leaves start to wilt or droop slightly, it’s usually a sign the plant is thirsty.

• Winter Care: Reduce watering frequency during the colder months when the plant's growth slows down.   

Soil & Fertilizer

• Well-Draining Mix: Use a standard indoor potting mix amended with perlite or orchid bark to ensure oxygen reaches the roots.

• Feeding: Use a balanced, liquid houseplant fertilizer once a month during the spring and summer.   

Humidity & Temperature

• Temperature: It prefers a range between 65°F–85°F. Keep it away from cold drafts or heater vents.  

• Humidity: It handles average home humidity well but will grow faster and produce larger leaves if provided with extra humidity (like a pebble tray or occasional misting).

Quick Maintenance Tips

• Pruning: Leggy vines can be trimmed back to encourage a bushier growth habit. You can propagate these cuttings in water!   

• Cleaning: Wipe the leaves with a damp cloth every few weeks to remove dust so the plant can photosynthesize efficiently.
