Epipremnum pinnatum, commonly known as Dragon Tail Plant or Pothos, is a popular climbing plant native to tropical regions of Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands. It is known for its glossy, heart-shaped leaves and its ability to thrive in a variety of conditions. This plant is often used as a decorative indoor plant due to its attractive foliage and easy care requirements.
To care for Epipremnum pinnatum, place it in a location with bright, indirect light. It prefers moderate temperatures and high humidity. Water the plant regularly to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. This plant is relatively low-maintenance and can adapt to various indoor environments.
Bodem
Epipremnum pinnatum thrives in well-draining, loamy soil. A mix of potting soil with perlite or orchid bark can provide the necessary drainage. Ensure the soil remains moist but not soggy to prevent root rot.
Kunstmest
Fertilize Epipremnum pinnatum with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer (20-20-20) every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Reduce feeding during the winter months when the plant's growth slows down.
Verpotten
Repot Epipremnum pinnatum every 1-2 years or when it becomes root-bound. Choose a pot that is one size larger than the current one and ensure it has drainage holes. Gently remove the plant from its old pot, loosen the roots, and place it in the new pot with fresh soil.
Voortplanting
Propagate Epipremnum pinnatum through stem cuttings. Take a cutting with at least one node and place it in water or directly into moist soil. Keep the cutting in a warm, humid environment until roots develop, then transplant it to a pot with well-draining soil.
Snoeien
Prune Epipremnum pinnatum to control its size and shape. Trim back any leggy or overgrown stems using clean, sharp scissors. Pruning can also encourage bushier growth and remove any yellowing or damaged leaves.
Toxiciteit
Epipremnum pinnatum is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. The plant contains calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause irritation and swelling in the mouth, throat, and digestive tract. Keep the plant out of reach of children and pets.
