Purchased this pothos online. It was supposed to be (according to the photo online) a Snow Queen. The photo looked more white than cream/yellow. But maybe it will get more white?  
Sure looks me like a Marble Queen to me.  
Am I crazy?

This is funny because I just picked up a snow queen today you can use for comparison. Mine definitely has more white on it.

Snow queen is just a nickname for a marble queen with a lot of white variegation. It may change colors or not. Just depends. Supposedly a lot of sunlight will encourage variegation

#### Gaileen Joy replied on 2025-03-30

That’s pretty much what I read too. Just double checking. Thanks for your input! 👍🏻

#### Tee Jay replied on 2025-03-30

Oh good. I was hoping you didn’t get scammed or something. Sometimes sellers will charge more for a “snow queen”

#### Gaileen Joy replied on 2025-03-30

It really wasn’t bad. And every other plant I’ve bought from this seller has been phenomenal. Thanks for commiserating with me. 🥰

#### Gaileen Joy replied on 2025-03-30

It was only $12, so I guess I should have figured. LOL!

Though technically the same plant...technically a ton of variety are the same plant. If it was sold to you as a snow queen I would send that back. It's a marble, not a snow. More light can possibly increase the varigation, but its doubtful it will ever look like a snow queen.

#### Gaileen Joy replied on 2025-03-30

I kinda figured. 🙄 But I didn’t pay much for it and every other plant I’ve gotten from this seller, so I’ll just keep it. 👍🏻  
But I’ll be on the lookout for a SNOW Queen. 😉

#### Gaileen Joy replied on 2025-03-30

Yeah. I probably should have known, for only $12. LOL! Although the seller has always had very reasonably priced, beautiful plants.

#### fuey replied on 2025-03-30

To be fair mine was also $12.. they exist!!

#### Gaileen Joy replied on 2025-03-30

Yours is beautiful! I’ll keep my eyes open for one. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
