Why does this global green pothos look like a lemon meringue pothos? I’m so confused 😵‍💫

was mislabled. global green has inner variegation, lemon meringue has outer variegation. you do indeed have a lemon meringue

The lemon meringue were out of stock, but the global green were in stock, and the lemon meringue were in 6” pots, the GG were in 4” pots.

But even though it’s a global green, I’m calling it lemon meringue.

it's very very common for pothos cultivars to be mislabled. the store doesn't care about accuracy. global greens do not have this kind of variegation. whatever you have, it's not a GG lol

The global green is about the size of my “global green” and the LM is a bit larger. But I also think it’s a lemon meringue pothos
