Here’s Lemon Meringue Pothos – a new addition to the Pothos family, this beautiful houseplant promises to transform your indoor garden with its bright color combination!
Like most pothos, the lemon meringue pothos (Epipremnum aureum ‘Lemon Meringue’) is easy to care for and requires little attention when cultivated indoors.
Lemon Meringue Pothos grows best from stem cuttings. Take a 4-6 inches section from a healthy plant with at least two to three nodes. Remove the bottom foliage, and dip the cut end in the rooting hormone (optional). Now, plant it in a pot filled with a well-draining potting mix.
Water well and place the jar in an area with bright, indirect light. The roots will emerge in a couple of weeks.
Begin by selecting a healthy stem from an existing plant, ensuring it has at least 4-6 leaves and a few nodes (the small bumps on the stem where leaves and roots grow).
Cut just below a node using a clean, sharp pair of scissors. Remove the lower leaves to expose the nodes. Fill a transparent jar or vase with room-temperature water and place the stem in it, ensuring the nodes are submerged.
Choose a spot with bright, indirect light for your pothos, avoiding direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves. Change the water weekly to prevent bacterial growth. Roots should start to develop within a few weeks.
Once the roots are a few inches long, you can either continue to grow your Lemon Meringue Pothos in water or transplant it into the soil.
The lemon meringue pothos prefers several hours of medium to bright, indirect sunlight. It can tolerate low light conditions but expect less vibrant colors and slower growth.
Place it near a bright east or west-facing window for robust growth. For south-facing windows, use a curtain to
