United Nursery Golden Pothos Totem

This plant stands between 38 and 48 inches tall, so it works best in corners or near furniture where it can add vertical height without crowding your floor space. Because it grows upward on a totem rather than trailing outward, it has a relatively compact footprint for its height.

No, the Golden Pothos is toxic to pets if ingested. It is best kept in a room or on a stand that is inaccessible to curious cats or dogs.

It prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its vibrant leaf color and steady growth. Avoid placing it in direct, harsh sun, which can scorch the leaves, or in a completely dark corner, which will slow its growth significantly.

As a general rule, water when the top inch or two of soil feels dry to the touch. Because it is a moderate-care plant, it is better to let it dry out slightly between waterings rather than keeping the soil constantly soggy, which can lead to root issues.

Yes, the totem encourages the Pothos to grow in its natural, vertical habit, which often results in larger, more mature leaves compared to a trailing Pothos. It essentially mimics the plant's natural environment where it would climb trees in the wild.

Absolutely. While it requires a bit more attention than a succulent, the Golden Pothos is famously resilient and forgiving. It is an excellent step up for someone who wants a larger, more architectural plant without needing a complex care routine.
