Epipremnum Pinnatum Variegated | Variegated Pothos | Happy Houseplants
ADD A BEAUTIFUL FITTED POT (OPTIONAL)
Epipremnum Pinnatum Variegated is a rare and eye-catching vining plant that evolves dramatically as it matures. Known for its ever-changing leaf shapes and creamy white variegation, it makes a standout addition to any plant collection. Unlike Monstera Albo, this plant’s variegation is stable and consistent — no guessing games here.
As the plant grows, the leaves transition from heart-shaped to deeply lobed with fenestrations, resembling a Monstera but with a finer texture. It’s the kind of plant that always has something new to show you.
Our Epipremnum Pinnatum Variegated arrives in a W15cm nursery pot and stands approximately H40cm. It’s a fast grower that works beautifully as a trailing shelf plant, in a hanging basket, or climbing up a moss pole.
Native habitat and growth pattern
This plant is native to the tropical rainforests of Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands, where it climbs trees in search of dappled light. Its juvenile leaves are smooth and heart-shaped, but as it matures in brighter light, the leaves become palm-like with dramatic fenestrations.
Styling tips
-
Hang in a macramé holder where vines can drape freely
-
Train it up a moss pole for a taller, more mature look
-
Use in minimalist rooms to add sculptural texture and greenery
-
Perfect for shelves, corners, or trailing down furniture
Epipremnum Pinnatum Variegated care guide
Light requirements:
Tolerates low light but prefers bright, indirect sunlight to encourage fenestration and strong growth.
Watering:
Allow the top two inches of soil to dry before watering. Water thoroughly, then allow excess to drain — it dislikes soggy roots.
Feeding:
Feed monthly during the growing season (spring and summer). We recommend our Original Vegan Plant Food, a gentle organic fertiliser made from natural seaweed — perfect for rare tropicals.
Humidity:
Enjoys moderate to high humidity but adapts well to average indoor conditions.
Pet safety:
This plant is toxic to pets if ingested. Best kept out of reach of curious cats and dogs.
Propagation:
Easy to propagate from stem cuttings. Simply trim a healthy vine, place it in water or moist soil, and wait for roots to develop.
