Pothos Neon Joy

$29.99
Title

It features crinkled, slightly wavy heart-shaped leaves in a vibrant neon-yellow/lime colour, flecked and patched with blocks of dark emerald green.. It is a distinctly different cultivar from both the standard solid-colour Neon Pothos and the white-variegated N'Joy Pothos. The leaves are uniquely textured, slightly distorted, or wavy foliage compared to smoother pothos varieties.

The foliage is sensitive to too much light and bruising. The bright neon leaf patches have very little chlorophyll, making the plant grow slowly. Because it grows more slowly than a common Pothos, it consumes water at a slower rate, making it highly vulnerable to overwatering and root rot.

Common Pests

Mealybugs

Mealybugs

What To Look For: White, cottony or waxy masses on stems, leaf axils, underside of leaves. Sticky honeydew, sooty mold growth, yellowing or dropping leaves.

How To Treat: Use a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol to dab and remove visible bugs. Wash leaves and stems with gentle soapy water. In heavy infestations, consider removing very affected stems/leaves or, in the worst case, replacing the plant.

Spider Mites

Spider Mites

What To Look For: Very fine webbing under leaves or between stems and leaves (especially in dry indoor air). Leaves may appear stippled (tiny yellow or white dots) or dusty; they may turn yellow, brown or drop. When you tap a leaf onto white paper, you might see tiny moving specks. (Often too small to see easily)

How To Treat: Increase humidity around the plant (since mites thrive in dry air). Spray plant thoroughly (both sides of leaves) with insecticidal soap or a miticide/plant-safe oil; repeat every few days. In heavy infestations, consider removing severely affected sections; isolate the plant.
