Golden Pothos

The Golden Pothos also goes by the name of Epipremnum aureum, and it’s very easy to take care of it. This tropical houseplant is one of the top houseplants that reduce formaldehyde in your home.

As a matter of fact, it’s in NASA’s top three, next to the philodendron and the spider plant. Formaldehyde is known to increase irritation of the mouth, nose, and throat – which only worsens any allergies you might have.

The golden pothos is a very easy-growing plant with many air-purifying qualities, and it can represent a great addition to your rooms. If you decide on purchasing one, make sure you put it in bright, indirect light.

As for watering, make sure you never let your Pothos stand in water, as it may easily develop root rot.

    Thank you for information on plants I might be able to try and grow in my house. It’s always a challange to find plants because my house faces North and South so most all of my windows also face that way and we don’t get a lot of direct sunlight. Plus I have trees al around my house , which is beneficial in some ways but not so much in others.
