Finding light for Silver Satin Pothos in your home
a window
Silver Satin Pothos may have difficulty thriving, and will drop leaves 🍃, without ample sunlight.
Place it less than 3 feet from a south-facing window to maximize the potential for growth.
Select your region to see how the current weather in your area affects the placement of Silver Satin Pothos in your home 🏡.
How to fertilize Silver Satin Pothos
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Silver Satin Pothos after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

I've been dealing with some issues with my Silver Satin Pothos. It's gotten quite leggy and the leaves are much smaller than they used to be. I tried cutting it back a few months ago, but that didn't seem to improve things. Any advice on how to help it thrive? #silverpothos #SilverSatinPothos #Pothos #SatinPothos

We celebrated my grandmas birthday today, she wanted a philodendron‘Birkin’ so that’s what she got 🪴🎉🥰 I also couldn’t help myself when I went to the nursery and found a silver satin pothos, and a chocolate soldier kalanchoe that was 50% off ✨ if anyone can give me tips on the birkin or pothos it would be appreciated!

Why does she hate me? I have been trying to master Scindapsis for a long time and just can't seem to get it. My silver pothos started to do badly in soil, so I shifted her to water. She also has great lighting from an east-facing window. For a while, things were good. But now, the leaves are curling up despite living in water. I frequently change the water, so what else can I do? #plantsmakepeoplehappy #plantaddict #silversatinpothos

Got my plants today from the Greg shop. They are a replacement since one of the others had root rot. Got two duplicates, the satin and golden pothos. But got two new ones! Philodendron Lemon Lime and Brasil! #PothosPack #GregGang #GoldenPothos #SilverSatinPothos #Philodendron #PhilodendronLemonLime #PhilodendronBrasil #PlantsMakePeopleHappy

So proud of these little leaves coming through, still a new plant mom I feel but these baby leaves give me so much hope I gotta hype them up 🥰 LiloStitch came to me as a rooted propagation with two leaves, put her in soil and she pushed out 2 leaves for me🫶🏻 Dottie came to me with only 3 giant leaves, she has pushed out 5 leaves in my care and has 3 little buds about to open up🥹 Xena is my first successful propagation to root and be put in soil, these are her first leaves to ever open up with more buds coming in her own roots 🙌🏻 Soul is a new guy for me but such a beautiful little guy, has unfurled a leaf and pushed out a new bud in my care🤍 Grey is also a new guy for me but has just unfurled a leaf with a new little bud popping up right under🌱 #FreshLeafFriday #NewGrowth #HappyPlants #PlantAddict #GregGang #SyngoniumSquad #BegoniaBunch #SilverSatinPothos #Scindapsus #variegatedplants #HeartleafPhilodendron #SilverDragon

Brown spots? #SilverSatinPothos I recently got this little silver satin pothos and I adore it! It has developed some brown spots on the underside of one leaf and some on the top of another 😭 it might be totally fine, but just in case before anything happens to it does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!! (No noticeable pests. Sitting about a foot away from a north facing open window. Does have a fan blowing near it, but not on it)

Here are my babies saying it’s #FreshLeafFriday .. my #peperomia finally have new leaves and keeping them. For a while they were dropping any new growth they had but they ar whetted now. My #GoldenPothos and #SilverSatinPothos are both propagations and the golden has new growth finally. My #SwissCheeseVine is coming along as well with a new leaf. My #variegatedstringofhearts are all doing very well and seem to have new growth all the time. But the one I’m most excited is for the #RavenZzPlant propagation I’ve had for a while. It finally pushed out a root and two tiny leaves.. more pics in the comments.

I’ve only had it for about a week and it already has 9 new babies coming in!! The Satin pothos is beautiful to look at, it’s so stunning and elegant! Any type of pothos grows so easily as well as taking care of it. Most def recommend.
