# Hi everyone! A friend of mine gave me this cutting from her Pothos…

Hi everyone! A friend of mine gave me this cutting from her Pothos plant. I believe this may be a jade, but I’m not 100% sure. Can anyone help me, and maybe even give me any pointers? Thanks!! 🙂

It kinda looks like a neon,, is it rooted ? Did you stick the cutting right In dirt?

Yes it has some roots when i stuck it in dirt! My friend had it in water before

It looks like a golden to me. True jades are very hard to find. Get it in some bright light and water when the soil is mostly dry, and your plant will thrive.

Thank you!! I was told it needs indirect light. Is both acceptable or does it need lots of light for sure?

#### Tee Jay replied on 2025-08-04

Both are acceptable for pothos. They will do best in bright light though. In the wild they climb up trees

Tysm!

It’s a neon not a jade and not a golden
