Thought of it’s as nice of a reminder on a Monday morning.. Morning Everyone ..
We’re living in a culture of attachment: we buy things to fill a void, we believe that more truly is more, we attach meaning and status to the things that surround us.
” You can only lose what you cling to.”
Buddha said, “You can only lose what you cling to.” Sometimes we hang on so fiercely that our sense of self becomes hopelessly intertwined with the things that fill our life
As you practice today, try to unclench and Let Go

Seriously it is the easy peasy plant, if you only water them when they start to look wilty, you’ll have them for years. It is an excellent option for even low-light homes like ours. Pothos has various numerous common names, including golden pothos, hunter’s robe, ivy arum, money plant, and taro vine. Its also called Devil’s Ivy is because it’s nearly impossible to kill and stays alive even when kept in the dark.
Sharing few of my Pothos we have nurtured at our home,
However, if you want to take the best care of them so they’re the happiest and healthiest they can be, here are our best tips.
Our Best Tips
Soil and Water
Pothos do best when placed in a container with water. Well if you wish to transfer them to soil be very careful as they adapt to place they are first settled to.
Pothos do best when their soil is allowed to dry out between waterings.
If you find the leaves glossy, green, and perky, the plant is happy; if they’re wilting or turning brown, you’re not watering enough. Yellow leaves are a sign of over-watering and root-rot. Don’t let the soil sit constantly wet ever.
Propagating Pothos
To propagate a new pothos from your existing plant, start with a six-inch piece of stem that has several leaves.
Few tips to add:
- Always grow pothos in small containers they can grow to about six to 10 feet over time.
- Pothos is just perfect for our office space and our homes(Indoor) and Bathrooms (yes they ornamental plant for Bathrooms) because it helps remove carbon monoxide from the air, add this plant in your bedroom to ensure enough oxygen while sleeping.
- Repot your pothos if the roots have consumed the pot. Take one size larger container when you are taking it out and add fresh potting soil.
- Pothos is very easy from cuttings, place this cut stem with a node on it in a glass of water and wait for it to root. Then plant this in a small container.
- Avoid direct sunlight, Pale leaves means too much sun.
- Pothos definitely dislikes soggy roots. The leaves droop when the plant is thirsty and needs a drink.
- Fertilize your Pothos Plant about once every three months as this will help the plant grow more quickly.
Let me know if you already own Pothos, and will like to have big leaves out of them. yes, we have done that too. Thanks to my father for teaching me those tips, under his guidance we work together and take care of our plants.
