Hello plant friends! I have a question…

I was given this cutting and someone said it’s a golden Pothos. But with the way it’s growing straight up and huge leaves, I’m not so sure. (The little hole is just from trauma/moving.) Can anyone confirm?

pothos leaves can get pretty big, and with a plant that young, it’s normal for them to shoot straight up at first. hard to tell if that’s a GOLDEN, though. no sign of variegation makes me think it’s another type.

Okay perfect, thanks for clarification!

I think it’s a pothos, this is what mine do. I have a few cuttings I just planted and planta told me they’re the golden variation. They don’t have any variegation yet, they look like yours. Time will tell

I think it’s a young Monstera! Definitely not a pothos

That’s kind of what I thought too! I’ll see as it matures 🙊

Looks like a baby monstera deliciosa to me!
