How to Care for the Plant

Water
Water about 5 to 7 days, depending on the temperature and the sun. Keep soil evenly damp, but not soggy. Its scientific name is Epipremnum Aureum, and it belongs to the family of Araceae. In the woods, Neon Pothos grows in subtropical forests, mostly in Asia and Australia.
Pruning
Pruning a 'Neon Pothos' in spring encourages bushy, healthy growth and gives you cuttings for propagation. To prune a lime-green pothos, snip the stems above the leaves and just below the node. This pothos pruning method ensures that new vines grow from the stem nodes.
Fertilizer
Pothos needs to be fertilized with a balanced 10-10-10 or 20-20-20 fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during their growing season. Lack of nutrients can slow the growth of your pothos; thus, fertilizing them is crucial.
