Epipremnum 'Lemon Meringue' is a striking cultivar of the popular pothos plant, known for its unique, variegated leaves that feature creamy yellow and soft green tones, resembling the colors of lemon meringue pie. This variety has a compact, bushy growth habit and is perfect for both beginner and experienced plant enthusiasts due to its low-maintenance care requirements. It thrives in bright, indirect light and well-draining soil, and can tolerate lower light conditions, though its variegation may fade. Like other pothos, it is drought-tolerant but prefers regular watering when the top of the soil is dry. Its attractive foliage, combined with its easy care, makes Epipremnum 'Lemon Meringue' a popular choice for home decor, adding a cheerful and vibrant touch to indoor spaces

1. Light

• Bright, indirect light is ideal for this plant to maintain its vibrant yellow and green variegation. While it can tolerate low light conditions, the colors of the leaves may become less intense. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, as this can scorch the leaves.

2. Watering

• Water your Lemon Meringue pothos when the top 1-2 inches of soil feels dry to the touch. This plant is somewhat drought-tolerant, but regular watering ensures healthy growth. Be careful not to overwater, as this can cause root rot. Always make sure the pot has proper drainage to avoid water accumulation.

3. Humidity

• Moderate to high humidity is ideal for Epipremnum 'Lemon Meringue'. While it can tolerate average indoor humidity, it will thrive in more humid environments. You can increase humidity by placing the plant on a humidity tray, using a humidifier, or misting it occasionally.

4. Soil

• This plant prefers a well-draining, lightweight potting mix. A standard houseplant mix with added perlite or sand works well to ensure good drainage, preventing water from pooling at the roots and causing rot.

5. Temperature

• Epipremnum 'Lemon Meringue' prefers warm temperatures, ideally between 65°F to 85°F (18°C to 29°C). Keep it in a warm, stable environment and avoid placing it in areas with drafts or temperatures below 50°F (10°C).

6. Fertilizing

• During the growing season (spring and summer), feed your plant with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer diluted to half strength. Fertilize once a month to promote healthy growth. In fall and winter, reduce fertilization as the plant's growth slows.

7. Pruning

• Prune your Lemon Meringue pothos to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Regular trimming of long vines will help keep the plant compact, and you can propagate the cuttings to grow new plants.

8. Repotting

• Repot your plant every 1-2 years or when it becomes root-bound. When repotting, choose a pot that is slightly larger than the current one and refresh the soil with a well-draining mix to ensure the plant’s continued healthy growth.
