Pothos 'Lemon Top'

Lemon Top Pothos 💛🌿 is loved for its heart-shaped leaves that emerge a bright golden yellow with soft green streaking, then deepen into richer green tones as they mature, giving the plant a fun layered look over time. It does best in bright indirect light indoors, where the fresh lemony new growth shows up best and the vines can trail beautifully from a shelf or climb with support. This is a generally easy plant that handles average indoor conditions well, as long as it is not left sitting in soggy soil. Pro tip: if the new growth starts coming in less vibrant or the vines get leggy, move it a little closer to brighter light and trim it back to encourage a fuller shape ✨.
