# I’ve had this neon Pothos for 6 months and it has barely grown. All…

_Posted by Lo on 2025-07-30_

I’ve had this neon Pothos for 6 months and it has barely grown. All of my other pothos varieties are constantly putting out new leaves. I water when mostly dry, fertilize regularly. I did move it to a less sunny spot awhile ago because I felt the leaves were getting burned or losing their neon color. Any thoughts if Neons just happen to grow slower?

My neon is a super slow grower. I blame it on over fertilization when they are trying to push out new varieties very quickly

Same! I’ve never had a pothos prop as slowly as my neon is. They really take their time with growing

Neons are very slow growing compared to other varieties. Even my manjula grows faster than my neons do.

Great to hear, thanks!
