Epipremnum aureum 'All Gold' (All Gold Pothos)

Epipremnum aureum 'All Gold', commonly known as All Gold Pothos, is a vibrant indoor foliage plant prized for its brilliant golden-yellow leaves and vigorous growth habit. Unlike traditional Golden Pothos varieties that display green and yellow variegation, All Gold features luminous chartreuse to golden foliage across the entire leaf, creating a bright and contemporary look that instantly lifts indoor spaces.

Native to the tropical forests of Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands, pothos plants are renowned for their resilience and adaptability. All Gold combines the easy-care nature of classic pothos varieties with a more striking colour palette, making it a popular choice for homes, offices, retail environments, and commercial interiors.

Its trailing stems make it ideal for hanging baskets, elevated planters, shelves, and plant stands, while its climbing ability allows it to be trained up moss poles, trellises, and supports for a more vertical display.

Growth Habit and Size

All Gold Pothos develops long, flexible stems that naturally trail from containers or climb when given support. The foliage remains dense and lush under suitable growing conditions, creating an attractive cascading effect.

When grown indoors, plants generally reach 20cm to 60cm in height while stems can extend between 1 and 3 metres or more over time. When trained to climb, leaves may increase in size as the plant matures.

Growth is considered fast, particularly during warmer months when provided with adequate light and moisture.

Care Requirements

Light

Prefers bright, indirect light.

The vibrant golden foliage develops its best colour in well-lit positions. Medium light conditions are tolerated, although leaves may become greener and growth may slow.

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct afternoon sunlight, which may scorch the foliage.

Watering

Allow the top few centimetres of soil to dry between watering.

Water thoroughly and ensure excess water drains freely from the pot.

Typically requires watering every 1 to 2 weeks depending on temperature, humidity, and light levels.

Soil

Thrives in a well-draining indoor potting mix.

A quality mix containing potting media, perlite, and coco peat provides ideal drainage and moisture retention.

Temperature and Humidity

Maintenance
