Is this variegated? When I got this pothos it was small and didn’t have any other colour besides green 😅

\*\*it’s also not in the sun much because I use grow lights and it’s also one of my healthiest plants so I don’t think it’s sunburn or anything\*\*

### Crystal commented on 2024-04-15

### budthegoat28 commented on 2024-04-15

its a golden pothos as it grows a new leaf the vareigation on each leaf comes out different

### S.R commented on 2024-04-15

Yes that is variegation. Looks yellow which would likely mean it’s a golden Pothos. They are lovely plants!

I know what it is! I was just wondering about the different colours on it but thanks.

Ah ok! Well hope it does well!!

Golden pothos are variegated plants, green and gold. They lose their variegation if they don’t get enough light. So it would appear that yours is getting more light that it was before because the new leaves are coming back variegated. Or it could be the genetics.

I did get a new grow light that is bigger so that really does make sense thank you!!
