Cebu Blue Pothos
Epipremnum pinnatum 'Cebu Blue'
The Epipremnum pinnatum 'Cebu Blue' is a stunning evergreen vine beloved for its unique metallic, silvery-blue foliage. This cultivar is distinct from common pothos varieties due to its lance-shaped leaves that remain elegant as a juvenile trailing plant. When provided with a climbing support such as a moss pole, the plant enters its mature phase, producing significantly larger leaves that develop dramatic natural fenestrations or splits. It is a resilient and fast-growing plant that adds a touch of sophisticated color to any indoor garden.

Care Guide
Light Requirements: Provide bright, indirect light to maintain the vibrant silvery-blue hue. While it can tolerate lower light, the growth will slow and the leaves may turn a duller green. Avoid direct afternoon sun which can bleach the foliage. ### Watering: Water when the top 1-2 inches of soil have dried out completely. Ensure the pot has excellent drainage to prevent root rot. ### Soil and Potting: Use a well-draining aroid mix composed of potting soil, perlite, and orchid bark. ### Climbing vs. Trailing: This plant is versatile; it looks beautiful in a hanging basket, but providing a moss pole or trellis will encourage the development of larger, fenestrated leaves. ### Maintenance: Wipe leaves with a damp cloth periodically to remove dust. Prune to maintain shape or to encourage bushier growth.
