The Pothos genus (*Epipremnum aureum*) is native to the Society Islands of French Polynesia. The 'Manjula' is a patented cultivar developed by the University of Florida. Unlike other Pothos, the 'Manjula' variety is characterized by its wide, puckered leaves and the unique trait of having its variegation concentrated in the center of the leaf, often bleeding over the margins. The name 'Manjula' refers to its beautiful, jewel-like appearance, a fitting tribute to this stunning, rare find in the Pothos family.

The Pothos 'Manjula' is famously easy-going but will reward bright light with the most vivid, beautiful variegation. Here are some tips to help it flourish:

• **Light:** Thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate medium light, but the white variegation will be less prominent, and the plant may become mostly green. Avoid intense direct sun which can scorch the white parts of the leaves.
• **Water:** Prefers to dry out partially between waterings. Water thoroughly when the top two inches of soil are dry, or when the leaves just start to look slightly droopy. Excellent drainage is vital.
• **Humidity:** Tolerates average household humidity but will grow faster and look lusher with increased humidity (misting, pebble tray, or humidifier).
• **Soil:** Use a well-draining, standard potting mix amended with perlite or coco coir for aeration.
• **Temperature:** Maintain stable, warm temperatures, ideally between 65-75°F (18-24°C). Protect from cold drafts.
• **Feeding:** Feed once a month during the spring and summer growing season with a balanced, liquid houseplant fertilizer diluted to half strength.
• **Pruning:** Prune vines to encourage bushiness and maintain your desired shape. Cuttings are easy to propagate!

Pothos are generally hardy but can occasionally attract common houseplant pests, especially if air circulation is low or the environment is stressed.
