# Hi! I would like some advice on my neon pothos, it’s been declining…

_Posted by Emma on 2024-03-23_

Hi! I would like some advice on my neon pothos, it’s been declining recently and I’m not sure if it needs repotting or new soil or what….the leaves curl up and sometimes fall off, its right in front of a window.

i would move it away from the window it could be a draft from cold weather. Maybe change soil and add fertilizer. Sum chunky mix that drains well and check the roots

i also find that when i dust the leaves it may help, and maybe a larger dowel for support, i see new growth so thats sweet!

My experience with neon pothos is that they do not like drafts or direct sun (they burn easily).

Thank you!!!

I’m not sure it’s actually a pothos. So maybe the suggestions from Planta aren’t matching due to that. I’m not sure exactly what it is though, the stems reminds me of a syngonium but the leaves don’t match that 🤔

Yea….my best assumption was it was pothos…I haven’t been able to find anything closer…and i took it off of someone but they weren’t sure either.
