Is a pothos really a pothos? As Justin Hancock and Marcos Garcia discuss in this episode of Plant Rx, the answer is a perfectly reasonable "sort of." They dig into the sometimes-confusing world of common and botanical names, including why the plant most of us call pothos is actually an Epipremnum and how botanical research shook up its family tree. Justin explains what a true Pothos is, how Scindapsus, often called silver pothos, fits into the conversation, and where the name devil's ivy came from. They also explore why Epipremnum has become the quintessential houseplant and uncover one of its stranger, and perhaps sadder, secrets: It appears to have lost the ability to flower naturally. So how does a plant that does not bloom or produce seeds keep turning up in homes everywhere? Justin breaks down how it reproduces, proving that you do not need flowers or seeds to become one of the world's most popular houseplants.
