TheGreenEscape Epipremnum Shangri La

The primary difference is the foliage. While standard Pothos have flat, heart-shaped leaves, the Shangri La variety features distinct, tightly curled, and crinkled leaves that create a unique, lush texture.

No, the Epipremnum Shangri La is not pet-friendly. It contains insoluble calcium oxalates, which can cause irritation if ingested by pets, so it is best kept on a high shelf or in a hanging planter out of reach.

It prefers bright, indirect light to maintain its unique leaf shape and growth rate. While it can tolerate lower light conditions, you may notice the growth slows down and the leaves become less curled.

This plant is relatively drought-tolerant, so it is best to let the top inch or two of soil dry out completely between waterings. Overwatering is the most common mistake, so ensure your pot has proper drainage.

Keep the plant in its original 4-inch starter pot for at least a few weeks after arrival. This allows the plant to acclimate to your home's specific light and humidity levels before you consider repotting it.
