Devil's Ivy Pothos Plant Care Guide

Placement

The Devil's Ivy is easy and undemanding. Place her in a room that gets a medium amount of natural light, or even in an office or bathroom that gets low light. Rotate the plant occasionally to encourage even growth.

Light Requirements

The Devil's Ivy needs medium to bright indirect sunlight, but will also do well in low light. Avoid direct sunlight.

Watering Needs

Keep the soil of your Devil's Ivy moist, but be careful not to overwater. Water when the top 2 inches of soil are dry. When watering, water the plant with fresh water lightly and slowly from above, allowing water to soak through to the roots, then tip out any excess water. Water moderately and infrequently.

Temperature Preferences

Does well at room temperature between 60°F - 77°F. Cold temperatures should be avoided.

Humidity Tolerance

Does well at normal (about 40% - 60%) humidity levels.

Repotting Needs

The plant can live happily in the provided pot for up to a year. Check if the plant is ready to be repotted by touching the soil and seeing if it has become loose, or if the roots have become overgrown. Repot using a rich, well-draining soil. When your plant is ready to be repotted, you can follow our simple how-to guide.

Unhealthy Plant Signs

Browning or yellowing leaves may be a sign that the plant is too cold. Yellowing leaves or black spots on the leaves indicate over-watering. Dry, brown edges indicate a lack of water. Pale leaves indicate that the plant is getting too much sun.
