Plant Care Guide
Light
Prefers bright, indirect light to maintain strong variegation and healthy growth. It can tolerate lower light conditions, but growth may slow and the variegation may become less pronounced. Avoid harsh direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
Watering
Allow the top few centimetres of soil to dry out between waterings. Water thoroughly when needed, ensuring excess water drains away freely. Avoid leaving the plant sitting in soggy soil, as this can lead to root rot.
Humidity
Adaptable to average household humidity, but will appreciate moderate humidity where possible. Higher humidity may encourage lusher growth and healthier foliage.
Temperature
Thrives in temperatures between 18–27°C. Keep away from cold draughts and avoid temperatures below 15°C for prolonged periods.
Soil
Grow in a well-draining houseplant potting mix. A quality compost with added perlite or bark will help improve aeration and drainage while supporting healthy root development.
Growth Habit
A trailing or climbing evergreen vine that can grow several metres over time in ideal conditions. Indoors, it can be kept compact with pruning or allowed to trail naturally from shelves and hanging planters.
Feeding
Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced liquid houseplant fertiliser to support healthy growth and vibrant foliage. Reduce feeding during autumn and winter.
Pet Safety
Epipremnum aureum ‘Marble Queen’ is toxic if ingested and should be kept out of reach of pets and children where necessary.
