Hi,

Please give us a description on what you are referring to as 'common
pothos',
does it have green leaves w/ yellow markings??   Several plants sold at
home-depot/k-mart type stores have this name, none belong to or are in the
genus Pothos.    All w/ the yellow markings are juvenile forms of a HUGE
Asian climber, it covers adult pine trees here in WPB, Florida, the leaves
are about 3 ft. long by 18 inches wide, with splits!!   It is said to bloom
very rarely near the very top of its maximum climbing height.    Peter Boyce
told me that only a very few blooms had ever been collected, and I have been
on the look-out for a bloom with no success thus far.

>>Has anybody on this list ever gotten common pothos to bloom under normal
indoors conditions? How is it done? Is it even capable of blooming, or does
it just spread vegetatively?>>
