Pothos-Houseplant Digest

The easiest plants to care for in the human world are often the ones we remember seeing all through our childhood in friends' homes, in businesses and doctor's offices.

Pothos and Buddha Statue

The easiest plants to care for in the human world are often the ones we remember seeing all through our childhood in friends’ homes, in businesses and doctor’s offices.  Easy care house plants have quietly been a part of our existence for so long partly because things haven’t changed a whole lot from the 1900s to now as far as ease of plant care.   We’ve selected one plant to be the “go to” for first time houseplant owners who are afraid they may not be up for the challenge of caring for a plant.

Both Master Gardeners and first time gardeners will tell you that Pothos plants are easy to love.  Pothos are characterized by their golden heart-shaped leaves and are extremely popular all around the world. They can survive in lower light and are great for offices and homes since they rid the air of carbon monoxide and formaldehyde.  These are plants that work for you!
