•  The Pothos 'Skeleton Key' (Epipremnum pinnatum) is a true botanical wonder that undergoes a dramatic transformation as it matures. Named for its unique leaf shape that resembles an antique skeleton key, this plant is a conversation starter. It is perfect for those who love "shape-shifting" plants and want something more exotic than a standard Pothos.
  
  Native to the tropical regions of Southeast Asia and the Western Pacific, where it is found climbing high into the rainforest canopy.
  
  In its natural habitat, a mature Epipremnum pinnatum produces a classic aroid inflorescence consisting of a creamy-green spathe and a spadix. However, it is extremely rare for this plant to flower indoors. The plant is primarily cherished for its foliage, which changes shape as it ages- a process known as morphogenesis.
  
  
• Bright, indirect light. To achieve the mature "key" shape, it needs plenty of light. Avoid direct midday sun, which can bleach the leaves.
  
  Moderate. Water when the top 2–3 inches of soil are dry. Like most Pothos, it prefers to dry out slightly between waterings.
  
  Chunky, well-draining mix. Use an aroid-specific blend of orchid bark, perlite, and high-quality potting soil to prevent "wet feet."
  
  18°C – 29°C (65°F – 85°F). It enjoys a warm, humid environment. Protect it from drafts and temperatures below 13°C.
  This plant should be fertilized once during the growing season (spring/summer) with diluted houseplant fertilizer.
  
  

• Zones 10–12. Best kept as an indoor plant in temperate regions.
