A relative of Epipremnum aureum, Satin Pothos has large, heart shaped matte green leaves with silvery-white splotches and edges. It is more compact than its cousin and makes a beautiful hanging plant, with an elegant, satin sheen. It can be trained to grow along the edges of shelves.
Other common names include Silver Vine, Silver Cloud, Silk Pothos and Silver Philodendron. In Latin, it also goes by the name Scindapsus pictus Argyraeus (particularly in Europe). Pictus means ‘painted’ and is a reference to its lovely silvery variegation.
Epipremnum pictum Argyraeus – Satin Pothos Care & Info Guide
Horty Hints
Will Wane When Wet! These plants don’t like too much water. If you notice leaves yellowing, tipping or leaf spotting, allow the soil to become dry to the touch before watering again.
Tame the Tipping! If several leaves start to go brown on the tips, lay off the watering. Pothoses prefer to be on the slightly drier side, so only water when the top of the soil has dried out.
Iron out the Kinks! This plant’s leaves will curl when its thirsty. A little water will go a long way, however if you are watering and the plant still curls, it could be a root rot issue.
Light
Epipremnum pictum prefers medium indirect light conditions. Avoid exposing to too much direct sunlight as this can burn the leaves.
Watering
This plant is drought tolerant but for best results, water your Pothos when the soil becomes slightly dry. Too much water will kill the plant.
Temperature
Satin Pothos is happy in normal room temperatures: from 15-24°C. Avoid draughts as these can create undesirable temperature fluctuations.
Humidity
This Epipremnum prefers increased levels of humidity but will tolerate normal conditions. Consider relocating to a steamier room like the bathroom or kitchen for an added boost.
Feed
Apply a weak general purpose fertiliser during the summer months.
