This gorgeous, trailing pothos is easy to grow, low maintenance and will trail nicely across a bookshelf or scramble up a mossy pole. ‘Trebie’ has delicate, heart shaped leaves with silvery splotches making it a luscious and attractive plant for a wide range of light conditions.
Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a simple nursery alternative), but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from. - Home care: Water relatively freely when in active growth, making sure the compost dries out in-between, but keep drier in winter. Avoid draughts and mist the leaves regularly with water to increase humidity. Every so often put it under a cold shower to wash off the leaves and pinch out the growing tips to encourage bushier growth. Make sure the winter temperatures stay above 10°C and repot every couple of years.
- Humans/Pets: Harmful if eaten; skin/eye irritant
