Looking for an interesting, easy-care Pothos that’s hard to find to add to your collection? Try Jessenia! This unique variety was found right here at Costa Farms and sports lovely medium-green leaves variegated in streaks and splashes of lighter green. The more light she gets, the more contrasting her variegation will be; it can appear from chartreuse to medium green in color. Despite her distinctive looks, Jessenia is just as easy to grow as other Pothos. This hard-to-find houseplant is grown and shipped fresh on our family-run farm directly to you. The price includes shipping/handling, as well as a heat pack (if needed) in the winter months. Climbing/trailing plant grown in a 6.6-inch-wide hanging basket Can climb/trail more than 6 feet Low maintenance needs, so it’s perfect for plant collectors or as an exceptional gift for beginners [bio] Plant Bio Epipremnum aureum Jessenia Jessenia Pothos was discovered here at Costa Farms as a single sport (mutation) on a branch of Marble Queen Pothos. Our growers thought it looked like it could be something special, so they propagated it and spent a few years propagating and selecting for stability. Jessenia is generally pretty stable, but she can occasionally put out all-green new growth or new growth that reverts back to Marble Queen. This variety was named for the daughter of the grower who found it. Grow this easy-care houseplant in a bright spot for best leaf color. Ideally, this is within 2 to 3 feet of an unobstructed east- or west-facing window (or the equivalent if you use plant lights). Jessenia Pothos will tolerate medium and low light conditions, but her variegation may fade more quickly than if you grow her in a brighter spot. Water her as the top 25 to 50 percent or so of the potting mix dries to the touch and take care to avoid overwatering. She thrives in average to above-average household temperatures; keep her above 55F for best results. Average to above-average relative humidity levels are just fine, too. As she grows, this houseplant will want to vine. You can let her vine up, trail down from a basket or shelf, or pinch her periodically to keep her full and bushy. Note: This plant may have some natural degree of toxicity and may cause discomfort or illness if ingested. Additionally, exposure to the sap of this plant may cause discomfort to individuals with a sensitivity to it upon contact. Grown for ornamental purposes and not intended for human or animal consumption.
