The golden pothos, taro vine, or devil’s ivy, as it is commonly known, is one of the most remarkable of all foliage plants. Epipremnums come in many shapes and sizes, and may be displayed as climbers or as trailing plants.

There are about 10 species in this genus with aerial roots, each with a characteristic tendency to wrap itself around the nearest object.
Epipremnum aureum (syn. Pothos aureus, Scindapsus aureus) is highly decorative, with mustard and green variegation on the 6-in/15-cm- long heart-shaped leaves.

It is tolerant of a wide range of conditions, though when placed far from the light source, the leaves lose their variegation. 
Indoors it should not be allowed to exceed 6—8ft/ 1.8—2.4m in extent, but it can grow five times as high in the wild, where plants produce flowers rather like those of the arum; pot plants do not flower.FACT FILE
