I’ve had this plant for a while in other countries, and it was always very easy going. But after the last time I moved the sapling I took with me has started struggling.

The picture is not a perfect illustration, but you can see new leaves coming out turning black in the ends, and eventually drying out and dying. This already happened with a lot of leaves that I cut off, but now it’s repeating itself with the new ones.

The plant has been in a relatively bright spot and I think it has received enough water that it shouldn’t be the problem. The black parts are completely dead. Does anyone have any idea what can be done? :)

I’m sorry the picture is not more illustrative.

    Honestly I think it looks ok. It’s rare to see a pothos vine with an even dispersion of leaves on both sides of the vine. In my experience, they tend to favor a side based on growing conditions.

    Out in their natural habitat, pothos are tree climbing vines. So if you think about it that way, it has one side with aerial roots for grabbing onto and anchoring to the tree, and one side with big green leaves for taking in sun.

    All this to say, the rest of the growth on the plant looks pretty healthy IMO
