🩵 Cebu Blue Pothos (Epipremnum pinnatum ‘Cebu Blue’)

The Cebu Blue Pothos is a collector’s gem, adored for its cool, silvery-blue leaves with a satin shimmer. Unlike the classic heart-shaped pothos, its narrow, pointed foliage and subtle metallic sheen make it instantly stand out in any plant collection. Native to the island of Cebu in the Philippines, this tropical climber brings a soft, modern elegance to your kokedama display 🩵trailing gracefully or climbing with support over time.

• Prefers bright, indirect light to enhance the silver-blue shimmer.
• Can adapt to medium light, though the color may appear greener.
• Avoid intense direct sunlight, which can cause leaf burn or fading.
• Best placement: east or north-facing window, or filtered south exposure.

• Water when the moss feels light, pale, or dry to the touch, typically every 7–9 days.
• Use about 1 cup of water, allowing it to absorb slowly and evenly.
• Rotate the kokedama while watering to ensure even moisture throughout.
• Mist occasionally to maintain humidity and to prevent leaf curling.
• Cebu Blues don’t like to sit soggy 💧 allow the ball to slightly dry between waterings.

💡 Tip: Limp or slightly curled leaves are an early sign it’s thirsty 💧 they’ll spring back after watering.

• Feed monthly during spring and summer using a ¼-strength balanced fertilizer.
• Skip feeding in winter or dormant months.
• For mature plants developing fenestrations (leaf splits), an extra calcium boost can support strong growth.

• Thrives in 70–85 °F (21–29 °C) and moderate to high humidity (50–70%).
• Appreciates being near other tropical plants or a humidifier.
• Avoid cool drafts or temperatures below 60 °F, which can stunt growth and fade the silver tones.

• Naturally a vigorous grower once established.
• Trim long runners to encourage branching or train upward on a trellis for larger leaves.
• Wipe leaves gently to maintain their metallic sheen.
• Rotate regularly for balanced trailing or climbing form.
• Can remain in kokedama form for 10–14 months before needing rewrap or refresh.

Rewrap or repot when:

• The moss dries unevenly or roots begin to protrude.
• Growth slows despite good care.
• The moss ball feels firm and root-bound.

If repotting, use a chunky mix of coco coir, perlite, and orchid bark to mimic airy tropical soil.

In its natural habitat, the Cebu Blue climbs trees and eventually develops dramatic split leaves (fenestrations), similar to a mini Monstera. Indoors, given time and vertical support, it can display this mature growth even in kokedama form 💫 a true statement piece for enthusiasts.
