Le Mie Ricompense
English name:
Devil's Ivy 'Marble Planet'Latin name:
Epipremnum pinnatum 'Marble Planet'About me:
I am a relatively new variety of Devil's Ivy and my closest cousin is the variegated version, Marble Queen.Useful to know:
Origin
A greenhouse! I am a new cultivar and as such don't exist in the wild.
Height/Growth
I am a climber so either train my vines up a moss pole or let them hang. They can reach lengths of 1.5m!
Light
I like bright, indirect light but would be happy in a shadier spot too.
Water
Leave the top few centimeters of my soil to dry between waterings. I need more water during growing season and less during winter.
Temperature
No rooms below 10°C please.
Feeding
Feed me monthly during growing season.
Grooming
You can pinch out my growing tips if they getty leggy to encourage bushier growth.
Care
I don't like draughts and love a misting. Pop me in the shower to clean the dust off my leaves - it tends to get in my marbled veins.
Toxicity
I am toxic so please don't eat me.
Fact
I am sometimes wrongfully labelled as a Monstera karstenianum, which oddly enough is the incorrect name for the Monstera siltepecana!
