At the risk of being that person – they are technically Scindapsus, even though commonly called satin Pothos.

That said, they are great lower light plants (100-200 foot candles). Very similar in terms of care requirements, they will let you know when they need water. They do grow on poles and such, but I have mine all trailing.

Mine has been growing like crazy the entire winter. The distance between leaves on the left vine is a bit leggy (probably reaching for light at the nursery) but if you give it decent light it should stop that. Also, I let mine dry completely before watering.

I heard they don’t like getting their leaves wet so I would bottom water
