Plant Care & Growing Tips

Caring for your Epipremnum Pinnatum Golden Flame live plant is relatively straightforward, ensuring it maintains its stunning variegation and healthy growth. Providing the right environment is key to unlocking its full potential. For optimal growth, place your Golden Flame Pinnatum care in a location that receives bright, indirect light. Direct sunlight can scorch its delicate variegated leaves, leading to browning, while too little light may cause the variegation to fade. An east or north-facing window is often ideal, or a few feet back from a south or west-facing window. Rotate the plant periodically to ensure even light exposure and symmetrical growth.

Watering should be done thoroughly but judiciously. Allow the top inch or two of the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is a common issue for aroids and can lead to root rot, so ensure your pot has adequate drainage. When you water, do so until water drains from the bottom of the pot, then discard any excess. The ideal soil for this Epipremnum collector plant is a well-draining, airy, and peat-based potting mix. A chunky aroid mix containing bark, perlite, and coco coir is highly recommended to provide excellent aeration and prevent waterlogging. Maintain average room temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C) and moderate to high humidity (50-70%). You can boost humidity with a humidifier, pebble tray, or by grouping plants together. Fertilize every 2-4 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength. Reduce or cease fertilization during fall and winter. Regularly inspect your plant for pests and wipe down leaves to keep them dust-free and allow for optimal photosynthesis.
