# Neon pothos drama! Me and pothos don’t get along. I have 4 varieties…

_Posted by Laurelantur on 2025-07-12_

Neon pothos drama! Me and pothos don’t get along. I have 4 varieties and only one seems happy but is very slow growing. Anyhow, what does my neon pathos want? It was perfectly fine. I moved it for decoration reasons and it’s leaves started fading and so I moved it back and perhaps this is just the ongoing consequences of daring to move it in the first place, but I thought I would check with people who are more familiar. I have a similar issue with my cebu blue. It seems to be affecting the oldest leaves. Not rootbound, gets an hour or two of late afternoon sun. It was fine until I moved it.

Idk wish I could help I couldn’t figure out what my neon pathos wanted either. I moved to more light, then less light because leaves were burning, gave higher humidity, then repotted in better soil and it still died on me. Cebu started off good as well then it ended up in a demise also. It seems to me the only ones happy in my home is the marble queen, jade and devils ivy. I so far have a shangrila that’s hanging on by an inch… these new pothos they are coming out with if you don’t have the correct environment for them they do not make it 😏

My neon was not dying indoors, but was not growing. Now it, along with my manjula, 2 goldens, and marble queen are on my lanai in shade with afternoon bright, but indirect sun, and they love it. They re growing, although the manjula and goldens are growing much faster than the neon and marble queen.

I had taken an emergency cutting of the Cebu and put it in my greenhouse cabinet and it seems quite happy there.

A pothos specificly a neón pothos likes to be forgotten on a regular occasion that looks like a early sign of overwatering so my advice is hit that snooze button once or twice on ur planta notification for watering that plant every time it tells u to water it unfortunately this app doesn’t know everything😞
