Hands down, devil’s ivy (Epipremnum aureum) is the. best. indoor. plant. ever! Why? Well, this tough trailing plant will grow virtually anywhere - from hanging baskets to troughs or even cuttings placed in a glass vase. It can handle dimly lit rooms and will forgive you for the times you forget to water – seriously, what’s not to love?

HOW TO GROW 1

Choose a pot at least 200mm wide. Position in a well-lit spot indoors. Fill with quality potting mix, such as Yates Premium Potting Mix.

2

Remove the plant from the container, gently tease the roots and cut away any circled or tangled roots. Give the stems a light prune to encourage new shoots.

3

Position in pot and backfill with potting mix, gently firming down. Water in well.

4

Water when the potting mix is dry – insert your index finger to the first knuckle, if it feels dry, water and if it feels moist, leave watering for a few more days.

5

Feed fortnightly during spring and summer with Yates Thrive Houseplant Liquid Plant Food.
