I’m often wrong with ID’ing my plants. I just got this pothos and the tag from the greenhouse says “pearls n joy”. On Google all I find is “pearls and JADE” or “n joy” soooooo what is it? I told Planta that she was whatever one she looked closest to, but what??? What do you think it is?

Pearls and jade! They have green splotches within the white variegation whereas the pothos n’joy has almost no green within its white variegation, hope this helps!

That’s what I logged her as in this app since imo it looked the closest. I just get it wrong 90% of the time. I appreciate your feedback a lot! Thank you!

Good! Oh it’s okay, gets everyone at some point or another, no problem!

They probably didn't know which so put both names. But that's pearls \& jade. N'joy has more distinct lines. The way Epipremnum cultivars come about thou, it's possible to get a wildly different looking one. Though N'joy came about after pearls and jade, both originated from marble queen plants.

Period! Thanks for the plant knowledge :) it’s my favorite thing to learn about

There's never a period when gamma radiation is involved 😆 🤣
