We know Jessenia is one of the plant community’s favorite Pothos varieties, so we were especially excited when we found this sport. It looks similar to Jessenia (which was a sport of Pothos Marble Queen), but it’s even brighter and it holds onto its bright color longer before fading.

It’s a beautiful, variegated houseplant, but perhaps even better, it’s easy to grow. You can enjoy Jessenia Bright in just about any room of your home, though it does best in a spot with lots of light. It’s drought tolerant, so it’ll forgive you if you sometimes forget to water it. Pothos Jessenia Bright is perfect for displaying on a plant shelf, mantle, tabletop, or windowsill. But you can also grow it up a trellis, pole, or even your wall (but be careful; the roots can pull the paint right off if you ever need to take it down). It will even trail from a hanging spot, making it perfect for putting anywhere.

Epipremnum aureum Jessenia Bright

Our Plant Hunter found a single mutation right here at Costa Farms. It stood out for its bright variegation that holds on longer and is more consistent than Jessenia. It features chartreuse to gold variegation (depending on light levels) against a medium green leaf. Variegation is a marble pattern.

Epipremnum varieties, Jessenia Bright loves bright light—natural or artificial doesn’t matter, as long as it gets enough of it. You’ll find it truly thrives within a couple of feet of a good-sized, unobstructed east- or west-facing window, or the equivalent of with plant lights. But we’ve found it survives medium to low light levels, too. The variegation won’t be as bright and it won’t grow as well or as fast in a low-light environment.

To water Pothos Jessenia Bright, it’s best to allow the top 25 percent or so of the potting mix to just start to dry before watering again. Take care not to overwater and swamp the potting mix. Both underwatering and overwatering can cause yellow/brown leaf edges.

This Epipremnum variety grows well in average household temperatures. Thanks to its tropical roots, it holds up to heatwaves and doesn’t require particular care when the mercury soars. Do try to keep it over about 60F/15.5C for best results.

It prefers above-average relative humidity (over 50 percent), but does just fine in average relative humidity levels, especially if you keep it consistently watered.
