Notes
'Jessenia' pothos (Epipremnum aureum 'Jessenia') is a trailing vine for containers, shade gardens, and indoor spaces. It grows outdoors year-round in USDA zone 10 and warmer, down to about 30°F (-1°C). In colder areas, grow it as a houseplant or bring it indoors for winter. This plant likes part sun to full shade and dry to average, loamy soil. Its evergreen leaves mix light, medium, and dark green shades. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice. Keep it away from pets and children because it is toxic to humans, dogs, and cats.
Pairs well with Japanese aralia, Holly fern, and Dragon Wing Red begonia.
