Pruning Golden Pothos for Bushier Growth

Pothos only grows at vine tips. Without pruning, it becomes long bare stems with a tuft at the end.

Correct Pruning

  • Cut each vine back to 3–4 inches from the soil.
  • Cut just above a node (bump where leaf attaches) to leave minimal stub.
  • New shoots emerge just below the cut.

Rooting Cuttings

Remove lowest leaf, place node in water or damp soil. Nodes produce roots when cut, shoots when attached.

Brown cut ends are normal healing; extensive browning means the stem was unhealthy.
