@Arid_oasis it looks like a snow queen to me? Manjula have more cup shape near the petiole.
Hi Carole! It can be tricky to identify a Manjula Pothos for sure, especially when it's young and hasn't developed its mature leaf shape. However, based on the picture, it does look like a Manjula.
Manjula Pothos leaves start out narrow and pointed when they're young. As the plant matures, the leaves will gradually become wider and more heart-shaped.
If you're still unsure, you can try posting a picture of your plant on a plant identification forum like Reddit's r/whatsthisplant.
In the meantime, just continue to provide your plant with bright, indirect light and water it when the top inch of soil feels dry. With proper care, your Manjula Pothos should thrive!
@USAGardenHub cool, I didn’t know that about the maturing leaves on this Pothos.
@TheOddAsity April, that was my thought as well. But as @USAGardenHub mentioned the leaf shape changes as it matures. Guess I’ll wait and see. The good news is that they both require similar care.
I think you got a snow queen / marble queen pothos!

I have a big one of these, it’s my absolute fave pothos!
@TheOddAsity oh I just saw your response! I agree w you 🀍
@Arid_oasis my manjula seems to have had consistent shapes and it was the petiole that’s the give away. But you’re right, their care is the similar
Just wanted to throw in another option. Could it be E.pinnatum 'Marble King'? The mature leaves look like a mix of a Rhaphidophora and pothos, but the young leaves, based on what i notice on wild ones and Cebus, are more pointy
That's kind of hard to tell because it's between a Snow Queen and a marble Queen but we can only find out when the plant fully mature grow
