Pothos N'Joy care requirements

These care conditions are most relevant to yellow leaves in Pothos N'Joy. Check each one as a potential cause.

light_mode
Light
Bright indirect light maintains variegation; moderate indirect light is acceptable but results in reduced variegation and slower growth. Avoid direct sun which can bleach or damage leaves.
water_drop
Water
Allow top 1-2 inches of soil to dry between waterings. Water when soil feels dry; this slower-growing variety requires less frequent watering than other Pothos. Winter watering should be reduced significantly.

Fertiliser
Feed monthly during spring and summer with half-strength balanced liquid fertilizer. Reduce feeding in fall and minimize or withhold in winter.
