# So … this is my neon pothos looking like it’s had a mullet haircut.…

_Posted by faith on 2026-09-20_

So … this is my neon pothos looking like it’s had a mullet haircut. Had a slight incident with the window pictured in the 2nd photo last summer where the plant got burnt very badly. I feel like having all that stem is holding the plant back from making more leaves, but I kind of like it. Does it look bad? Or maybe it will fill out. Any opinions or advice would be appreciated:)

If you like it leave it. It will not fill in those vines though if you don't like it you can chop and prop those leaves at the bottom in water or toss them back into the pot to fill it out.

This isn’t a strong opinion, but I think that I would cut those off and make new plants out of the bottom. Sorry he got injured!

Prop and stick back in soil to get a lush full pot. May have to do that a few times and then let it grow its vines.

Looks like two separate plants. I think I would chop to for a better look but if you like it keep it! It can be a conversation piece/starter.
