Pothos Cebu Blue care requirements

These care conditions are most relevant to yellow leaves in Pothos Cebu Blue. Check each one as a potential cause.

light_mode
Light
Bright indirect light is important to maintain the blue-silver iridescence; moderate indirect light is acceptable but results in greener, less vibrant foliage. Provide as much bright light as possible without direct sun exposure.
water_drop
Water
Allow top 1-2 inches of soil to dry between waterings. Water when soil is dry to the touch; this variety prefers slightly more consistent moisture than other Pothos but still resents waterlogging. Reduce watering in winter.
science
Fertiliser
Feed every 3-4 weeks during active growth (spring and summer) with balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength. Reduce fertilizing frequency in fall and winter.
