it seems like they’re just grow points! so when you propagate, that’s where roots will come from

Oh okay! At first i felt like maybe new leaves will grow off of them, but as they grow they’re starting to feel hard so i wasn’t to sure. This is my biggest Pothos so i’m new to this. My other 3 are still babies

In high humidity they can grow bigger and attach to stuff

I know for sure my humidity isnt high, but i do mist them often. When i get my humidifier in i cannot imagine how it will look then! 🤭

Pothos actually love to climb! They climb trees in the wild. They do fine vining, but really thrive if you give them a moss pole that you can keep damp. Those spots you’re referring to will grow right up the moss pole.

I didn’t know this until I saw an Instagram reel of the biggest pothos I’ve ever seen. I got a moss pole for mine but love the vining look, so not sure what I’m going to do!

I have multiple Pothos and a few of the bigger ones do that
