Synopsis The Ultimate Guide to Pothos Plants by : Marianne D Baesa

The Ultimate Guide to Pothos Plants, by My Wasteless Life's content creator and house plant coach Marianne Baesa, is an easy to follow reference guide to help house plant enthusiasts to properly identify different varieties, cultivars, and forms of Epipremnum, Scindapsus, and Philodendron pothos plants. This reference guide is the extended book version of the Pothos 101 series on My Wasteless Life Youtube Channel, wherein all the information plant beginners and plant collectors need can all be found in one reference and instructional guide, from properly identifying different varieties of pothos, to how to successfully care for and propagate pothos. In this guide book, around fifty varieties of pothos under the Epipremnum, Scindapsus, and Philodendron species are described to help plant enthusiasts identify each one of them properly. This also teaches new plant parents how to properly care for pothos, and provides thorough but easy to follow instructions on how to successfully propagate pothos cuttings, without getting bogged down on overly complex scientific jargons and propagation methods. Additionally, two bonus chapters from the upcoming House Plants Back to Basics are included at the end: "How to Flush House Plants" and "Yellow Leaves in House Plants".

Synopsis Pothos by : Rosa Campbell

Epipremnum aureum, devil's ivy, or (somewhat erroneously) pothos is not special. It is not symbolically useful, it is not rare, it is not hard to grow or care for. But in the aftermath of unexpected death, an impossible-to-kill houseplant might have something to say about keeping going. In Pothos, Campbell traces a polyvocal narrative of loss, absent presence, and queer homemaking through a poetics of attention and an engagement with texts, art, music, and the occasional hologram. Hovering somewhere between memoir, prose poetry and essay, Pothos examines the condition of being alternately infuriated, bored, and overwhelmed by grief - its mutability, its opacity, its refusals. It is a raw and nebulous exploration of mourning, care and domesticity, and the way in which the small background sentience of plants can (maybe) tell us something about our own growth.

Synopsis Pothos Plants for Beginners by : Major Joe

One of the easiest indoor plants to grow, pothos (Epipremnum aureum) is often overlooked in favor of showier plants such as orchids. Though lacking blooms, this tropical vine-similar to philodendron-comes in an array of foliage colors and patterns that appeal to a wide range of tastes and decors. Nearly foolproof even for beginners, pothos is forgiving of neglect, virtually pest- and disease-free, and tolerant of low light, making it a good choice for darker rooms and offices. The long stems trail or climb by aerial roots that adhere to surfaces, making this a versatile choice for hanging baskets, plant stands, and bookshelves. Best of all, pothos is one of the top houseplants for improving indoor air quality, making home and office environments cleaner. GET YOUR COPY TODAY By Scrolling up and Clicking Buy Now
