Description

Create the vertical garden statement you’ve been dreaming of with a Pothos on a pole. This beautiful Epipremnum aureum with graceful heart-shaped leaves naturally wants to climb, and we’ve set it up for success.

When your Pothos grows up a pole, something magical happens - those gorgeous green leaves get bigger and more dramatic as they reach for the light. We love watching our plant parents discover how much personality their climbing Pothos develops compared to trailing varieties. This Pothos on a pole brings that lush jungle feeling into your home while being wonderfully forgiving about your care routine, making it perfect for anyone wanting to add some living architecture to their space.


Care 

Can Pothos grow on a pole?

Your Pothos growing on a pole flourishes with bright indirect light, watering when soil feels dry, and regular misting. Then there’s just monthly fertilizing during growing season and gentle support as it climbs.


Can you add a pole without repotting?

Your Pothos naturally climbs in its native Southeast Asian habitat, using aerial roots to scale tree trunks toward sunlight. A pole gives your plant this natural climbing opportunity, allowing your Epipremnum aureum to express its true growth personality.


Do Pothos like lots of sun?

Your Pothos prefers bright, indirect sunlight rather than intense direct rays that might scorch those beautiful heart-shaped leaves. Think of a cozy spot with filtered light through a window where your plant feels comfortable and completely protected.


What makes Pothos grow faster?

Bright indirect light, consistent watering, monthly feeding during spring and summer, and regular misting create the perfect environment for your Pothos. The climbing support actually encourages faster, healthier growth compared to trailing varieties, giving your plant its most natural lifestyle.


Where is the best place to put a Pothos on a pole indoors?

The perfect spot for your Pothos on a pole is near a window with gentle, filtered light, well away from drafts and direct sun. Choose a corner where this beauty has room to grow tall without crowding other plants.

Consider using your climbing Pothos as a natural room divider that adds privacy while bringing life to your space - it's wonderful how these plants can serve both decorative and practical purposes in your home.


Do Pothos like to be misted?

Your Pothos absolutely loves being misted. It helps maintain the humidity levels that remind your plant of its tropical homeland, resulting in more vibrant foliage and enthusiastic climbing behavior that you'll love watching develop.


How to make my Pothos thrive?

Give your Pothos bright indirect light, water when the top inch of soil is dry, mist regularly, fertilize monthly during growing season, and prune any leggy stems. Good drainage and protection from cold drafts complete our recipe for successful care.

Don't forget to rotate your plant occasionally so all sides get equal light exposure, and gently guide new vines onto the pole as it grows - a little direction helps it reach its full potential with proper Pothos plant care.


How often should you water a Pothos growing on a pole?

Water your Pothos when the top inch of soil feels dry, typically every one to two weeks depending on your home's light and humidity. Trust your finger (or hygrometer), not the calendar!


Pet-friendly?

The Pothos plant isn't pet-friendly - it contains compounds that can cause problems if curious animals decide to take a nibble. It can cause oral irritation, vomiting, and difficulty swallowing in pets who taste those tempting leaves.


Are Pothos toxic to dogs?

Pothos is toxic to dogs and can cause drooling, vomiting, and digestive upset if they decide to sample those attractive leaves. We recommend keeping your climbing beauty positioned safely out of reach of curious canines who might be tempted.


Are Pothos toxic to cats?

Pothos is toxic to cats, causing the same unpleasant symptoms as in dogs if your feline friend takes a taste. Keep it somewhere high enough that even the most determined cat acrobat can't reach those gorgeous but dangerous leaves.


Factoids

How do you train a Pothos plant to climb?

Training your Pothos plant to climb involves gently wrapping or tying the vines to your pole using soft ties or small clips. As new growth appears, continue guiding those wandering vines onto the support structure for the best results.

Be patient with your plant - it'll learn to love climbing and start doing most of the work itself once it discovers how much it enjoys the vertical lifestyle.


What is the lifespan of a Pothos plant?

With proper care and attention, your Pothos plant typically lives five to ten years indoors, though some continue thriving for decades. These resilient beauties can live a long time in ideal conditions, making them wonderful lifetime plant companions for your home.


Do Pothos like coffee grounds?

Your Pothos can benefit from coffee grounds in moderation, as they provide nitrogen and improve soil structure. We recommend using them sparingly and only on well-established plants, since too many coffee grounds can make soil acidic and potentially harmful.


Is it better for Pothos to hang or climb?

While your Pothos can both hang and climb beautifully, climbing encourages larger leaves and more vigorous growth overall. In nature, these plants are natural climbers, so a Pothos a pole is truly living its most authentic, healthy life.

Thought-provoking though not always convincing
Format: Hardcover
I originally posted a version of this review on my blog Quicksilber and am posting it here as well as I think the book merits broad notice: In a small irony, my writing about James Barrat's Our Final Invention has been slowed by a balky Internet connection. In my experience, glitches have become considerably more common as computers have become more powerful and complicated. Perhaps such growing glitchiness suggests artificial general intelligence (AGI) and artificial superintelligence (ASI) are more likely to get seriously out of control someday, though it might also be a hint that AGI and ASI are going to be harder to achieve than expected by either techno-optimists such as Ray Kurzweil or techno-pessimists such as James Barrat. Barrat's goal in this book is to convince readers that AGI and ASI are likely to occur in the near future (the next couple of decades or so) and, more to the point, likely to be extremely dangerous. In fact, he repeatedly expresses doubt as to whether humanity is going to survive its imminent encounter with a higher intelligence. I find him more convincing in arguing that ASI would carry significant risks than I do in his take on its feasibility and imminence. Barrat aptly points out that building safeguards into AI is a poorly developed area of research (and something few technologists have seen as a priority); that there are strong incentives in national and corporate competition to develop AI quickly rather than safely; and that much relevant research is weapons-related and distinctly not aimed at ensuring the systems will be harmless to humans. The book becomes less convincing when it hypes current or prospective advances and downplays the challenges and uncertainties of actually constructing an AGI, let alone an ASI. (Barrat suggests that once you get AGI, it will quickly morph into ASI, which may or may not be true.) For instance, in one passage, after acknowledging that "brute force" techniques have not replicated everything the human brain does, he states: >>But consider a few of the complex systems today's supercomputers routinely model: weather systems, 3-D nuclear detonations, and molecular dynamics for manufacturing. Does the human brain contain a similar magnitude of complexity, or an order of magnitude higher? According to all indications, it's in the same ballpark.<< Me: To model something and to reproduce it are not the same thing. Simulating weather or nuclear detonations is not equal to creating those real-world phenomena, and similarly a computer containing a detailed model of the brain would not necessarily be thinking like a brain or acting on its thoughts. A big problem for AI, and one that gets little notice in this book, is that nobody has any idea how to program conscious awareness into a machine. That doesn't mean it can never be done, but it does raise doubts about assertions that it will or must occur as more complex circuits get laid down on chips in coming decades. Barrat often refers to AGIs and ASIs as "self aware" and his concerns center on such systems, having awakened, deciding that they have other objectives than the ones humans have programmed into them. One can imagine unconscious "intelligent" agents causing many problems (through glitches or relentless pursuit of some ill-considered programmed objective) but plotting against humanity seems like a job for an entity that knows that it and humans both exist. Interestingly, though, Barrat offers the following dark scenario and sliver of hope: >>I think our Waterloo lies in the foreseeable future, in the AI of tomorrow and the nascent AGI due out in the next decade or two. Our survival, if it is possible, may depend on, among other things, developing AGI with something akin to consciousness and human understanding, even friendliness, built in. That would require, at a minimum, understanding intelligent machines in a fine-grained way, so there'd be no surprises.<< Me: Note that some AI experts, such as Jeff Hawkins, have argued the opposite--that the very lack of human-like desires, such as for power and status, is why AI systems won't turn against their makers. It would be a not-so-small irony if efforts to make AIs more like us make them more dangerous. Our Final Invention is a thought-provoking and valuable book. Even if its alarmism is overstated, as I suspect and hope, there is no denying that the subject Barrat addresses is one in which there is very little that can be said with confidence, and in which the consequences of being wrong are very high indeed.

all driven by artificial super intelligence (ASI)
Format: Hardcover
You are peering inside a black hole at a "point" beyond which you cannot see and where no one knows what exists. The point represents a period of time technologically known as Singularity. Even light cannot escape from the point and on the other side it is known only that there is a profound self replicating intelligence greater than our own, all driven by artificial super intelligence (ASI). Physicist Stephen Hawking writes that "In contrast with our intellect, computers double their performance every eighteen months. So the danger is real that they could develop intelligence and take over the world". Computer scientist and professor Vernon Vinge writes that "Within 30 years, we will have the technological means to create super human intelligence. Shortly after the human era will be ended". Our Final Invention is 267 pages of authoritative manuscript that is compelling, fascinating and beyond the fright stage. The book's author on numerous occasions refers to "we" as if there exists a unified collective engaged in artificial general intelligence(AGI) or artificial super intelligence (ASI). The reality is that some 56 nations are currently in different stages of arcane artificial intelligence designs. They include antagonists such as North Korea, Iran and suicide regimes from the Middle East. Russia, China and the U.S. are the biggest players as is Israel. The author believes that super computers fueled by nanotechnology will combine to produce ASI trillions of times more powerful than any human academic or intellectual resources. ASI has the potential to eliminate hunger, poverty, disease and even mortality but disruptions of global economies and politics will be in evidence as balance of powers are shifted. Unemployment dynamics will infect bank tellers, retail clerks, travel agents, loan officers stock brokers.... Computer software designs are so complex, even incomprehensible, that failures are inevitable. The 1986 Chernobyl meltdown, Three Mile Island, and Fukushima were all designed by highly qualified professionals but with complex infrastructures. Under Singularity as computer speeds double with frequency while human intelligence is unchanged, perhaps the musings of Hawking and Vinge will prove to be prescient. Our Final Invention is 267 pages of a very dark subject which not even a trace of a happy Betty Grable ending is to be found. My time has expired. Perhaps the final words were well expressed by Jaan Tallin, cofounder of Skype: 'A hard-hitting book about the most important topic of this century and possibly beyond---the issue of whether our species can survive. I wish it was science fiction but I know it's not'!

Gripping and Informative, a Must-read
Format: Hardcover
As someone who struggles to finish books in their entirety, I found Our Final Invention by James Barrat highly readable, deeply informative, and utterly gripping. The book contains a powerful message: through competition, distrust, desire and curiosity, humans will inevitably create an artificial intelligence (AI) that rivals or surpasses our own. Thus, it is wise and necessary to invest now in mitigation efforts and potential safeguards -- increased research and advocacy for AI risk and, most importantly, producing friendly AI. Barrat covers a lot of ground, but his main argument is summarized as follows: Currently, we humans regularly utilize narrow AI technology (technology capable of achieving specific, programmed goals through unassisted human computing -- Siri, Google search, IBM's Watson, etc). We are also experimenting with "black box" tools and techniques (programs where inputs and outputs are understood and measurable, but the processes in between aren't -- genetic algorithms/programming and software that writes better software) and artificial neural networking (ANN), as seen through efforts to reverse engineer the human brain. And, below the surface, there is an ongoing race between world powers (driven mainly by national security, defense, and international business interests) and guided by AI developers to develop and achieve artificial general intelligence (AGI) -- human-level artificial intelligence. The problem is that once AGI is achieved it will be very difficult to manage, and may very well result in the manifestation of artificial super intelligence (ASI) -- greater than human-level intelligence. ASI could theoretically become thousands of times smarter than the smartest human being alive. It won't think like us, won't want to be ruled by us, and, most crucially, it won't want to be turned off. In fact, ASI would likely regard us as potential fuel for its quest to duplicate and improve itself exponentially in order to achieve its goals. Throughout the book, Barrat refers to interesting psychological phenomena and concepts (such as the normalcy bias), while drawing on personal experiences, historic events, and interviews with computer programmers, inventors and philosophers, to tactfully illustrate how progress in AI development is dangerously rapid. Adequate checks and balances are not in place to deal with a non-ideal intelligence explosion or hard take-off (AGI quickly leading to ASI). I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in learning about both human beings and the advancement of machines. I suspect that the prominence of AI, as a research field and topic for discussion, will only increase in time (it already has in recent years -- drones, smart technology, Wall Street high frequency trading (HFT), financial modeling), making Our Final Invention a valuable guide or stepping stone for anyone trying to understand our world and the path of the future.
