Silvery Ann Pothos
Epipremnum aureum ‘Silvery Ann’ · Hanging Basket
Soft silver and creamy white splashed over green — Silvery Ann is the pothos that looks painted. In a hanging basket the vines spill over the rim in long, easy trails. It’s the plant you hang where you want a little shimmer without a lot of fuss.
Brighter light keeps the silver strong. In a dim corner it will still grow, but the variegation fades toward green.
Care at a glance
Light
Bright, indirect light. East or west windows are ideal. A little morning sun is fine; hot afternoon sun can bleach or burn the leaves. Low light = longer gaps between leaves and less silver.
Water
Let the top 1–2 inches of soil dry, then water thoroughly and dump the saucer. It would rather be a little dry than constantly wet. Droopy leaves usually mean it’s thirsty; yellow leaves often mean it’s too wet.
Soil
Well-draining houseplant or aroid mix. Don’t pack it into heavy potting soil that stays soggy.
Placement
Hang it where the vines can fall freely — by a window, on a plant hook, or above a bookshelf. Pinch or snip the tips if you want it fuller instead of longer.
Temperature & humidity
Average indoor temps (65–85°F). Normal home humidity is enough. Keep it away from cold drafts and blasting heat vents.
Food
Light feeding in spring and summer — a balanced houseplant fertilizer at half strength every 4–6 weeks. Skip it in winter.
Pet note
Toxic if chewed. Hang it high if you have cats or dogs that nibble.
Don’t
Hang it up, water when it’s dry, and let the silver trail.
