Is marble queen the same as golden pothos?

### Sunny commented on 2023-12-18

Looks like a marble queen because it has no gold on its leaves.

A marble queen is technically a green and white variegated variety of the golden pothos. Ordering a Golden Pothos from a nursery will get you a pothos with bright yellow areas on the leaves and not the marble queen variety. So, it’s best not to interchange the names when dealing with a nursery or seller.

The plants have different growth habits. The golden pothos can handle lower lighting and grows faster. The marble queen needs brighter indirect light or it can revert back to mostly green leaves.

I thought so! I have a golden and it has no white on it. Perfect. Ty!

There are such plants as white sport variegated golden pothos, but generally they are yellow. What you have in the picture is definitely a marble queen based on the pattern and coloring
