Pothos scandens has a wide distribution, from Malaysia through southern India to Southeast Asia. It grows in the undergrowth of tropical forests and creeps closely clinging to large rainforest trees to a height of several meters.

True Pothos differ significantly from pothos ( Epipremnum ), which were formerly classified in the genus Pothos and are sometimes still referred to as "golden pothos" or simply "pothos." Pothos scandens remains considerably smaller and more delicate than Epipremnum aureum , and the broadly lobed petioles of older plants, in particular, clearly distinguish it from pothos. Within its vast distribution area, there are several quite distinct-looking forms of P. scandens , which were formerly considered separate species but are now all classified as the same species.

The form offered here is the "classic" juvenile form of Pothos scandens . It has elongated leaves with rounded tips that are about as wide as the broadened petiole itself. When it can climb, the stem presses tightly against the support, and the leaves spread out to the left and right like the rungs of a ladder. Typical of true Pothos is its very slow growth and the fact that it has very few, but very long and tough roots.

As mentioned above, true Pothos are much smaller and more delicate than pothos. We therefore recommend keeping them in a terrarium.
