Growing Pothos from Cuttings is one of the best ways to multiply this plant with ease and also for free! Here are all the details on Propagating Pothos correctly!
Also known as golden pothos, devil’s ivy, money plant, and Ceylon creeper, Pothos (Epipremnum aureum) plants are native to Southeastern Asia and Oceania.
This low-maintenance houseplant is popular for its adaptability and air-purifying abilities. It can grow up to 5-10 feet long indoors easily and looks great both as climbing and trailing plant. You can easily grow it from cutting in soil and water!

Plant the cuttings and cover the nodes completely in the soil. Keep the growing medium slightly moist but not waterlogged as it can cause stem rot.
Being a tropical plant, it does best in the temperature range of 70F (21 C) and above. However, you can propagate the cuttings anytime as long as the temperature is above 50 F (10C).
Covering the cuttings with a plastic or ziplock bag will also help to sustain the warm temperature while maintaining the humid environment.
Keep it near a windowsill where it gets bright indirect light. If you have an east-facing window, keep the pot there so that it can bask in the mild morning sun daily.
