Marble queen pothos (Epipremnum aureum)

The marble queen is a popular variety in the pothos family and is also called devil’s ivy. It’s green leaves can have a white or yellow marbling, and it’s long vines like to climb, making it a great hanging plant.

Light: It likes low light, but grows faster in medium to bright indirect light.

Water: Keep the soil on the dry side. If leaves turn black, you’re overwatering; if the leaves turn yellow, you’re underwatering.

Pet friendly: No. Toxic to cats and dogs.

Plant parent level: Beginner.

Pro tip: No ceiling real estate available for a hanging plant? You can drape a pothos on a table.
