Baltic Blue, Pothos epipremnum pinnatum or Devil's Ivy, is an evergreen tropical plant native to Southeast Asia and Australia. This variety has a climbing, vining habit 4-6' long or as much as 65' in its native habitat. Pinnatum's broad, fenestrated, green to deep blue foliage offers rapid growth, flourishing in warm temperatures, high humidity, and bright light. An exceptional trellis plant outdoors in zones 10-12, Baltic Blue is most commonly an attractive, tropical houseplant. For a classic Pothos look, try growing Pothos Golden, or for a similar look that does well in lower light and cooler temperatures, try growing Philodendron.
Baltic Blue Selling Tips
Sell Baltic Blue to customers looking for a low-maintenance houseplant. This plant offers many benefits: it flourishes in bright light, purifies indoor air, is durable and drought-tolerant, and creates a tropical aesthetic. NASA research found that Pothos plants improve indoor air quality by quickly filtering toxic chemicals, including formaldehyde, ethyl alcohol, acetone, methylene chloride, and carbon monoxide from the air.
Compared to Philodendron, Pothos plants require warmer temperatures and more bright light. They offer crisp, shiny leaves and rapid growth. Cascading over a hanging basket, climbing a moss pole, or trailing on a surface, this plant excels with little water or care. Philodendron plants require less bright light and still do well in cooler indoor temperatures. One key to telling the difference between the oft-mislabeled plants is by noticing the new growth; Philodendron leaves have a cataphyll (protective sheath) when they emerge that dries to brown and falls off, while pothos emerge cleanly along the stem.
1. Grow this plant in a container in a brightly lit room or outdoors in zones 11-12 as a groundcover or trained up a trellis. Provide a moss pole or room for foliage to trail in containers, or prune regularly to maintain a bushy habit.
2. Provide moderate humidity by misting or placing the container on a pebble tray. Water when the soil is dry.
3. Fertilize with a general houseplant food once a month or every two weeks in spring and summer.
4. Turn pruning into new plants by rooting cuttings in water. Add these new plants to the original container to create a fuller look.
General Growing Tips For Your Rooted Cutting Liner
For best results with Baltic Blue, grow four to six rooted plugs per 4- or 10-inch container. Use well-drained soil with a pH of 6.1-6.5 and low feed after transplant (100-150 ppm N), increasing to 200 ppm N during active growth. Provide temperatures between 70-90 degrees, humidity at 50-60%, and light levels of 5,000 fc. Watch for spider mites, whiteflies, scales, mealybugs, and root rot.
Flowering
This plant is grown for its attractive foliage.
Pinching
This plant doesn't require pinching.
Spacing
Space containers for adequate airflow and sunlight penetration around the base and foliage of each plant.
Height Control
This plant doesn't require PGRs. Provide adequate light and warmth to encourage vigorous growth.
Pests
Scout for spider mites, whiteflies, scale, and mealybugs as part of your commercial greenhouse's Integrated Pest Management program.
Spider Mites are tiny pests that cause stippling, yellowing, and webbing on foliage by feeding on plant sap. They flourish in warm, dry environments. Use correct water and fertilizing practices; over-fertilizing can attract spider mites. Proper humidity levels, predatory mites or ladybugs, and insecticidal soaps or oils may prevent or address a spider mite infestation.
Whiteflies are small, winged insects that eat plant sap and cause yellowed leaves and stunted growth. Severe infestations can lead to plants dying. Prevent infestations by sanitizing surfaces and tools and removing debris. Introduce natural predators and use sticky traps to control populations. Insecticidal soaps and oils are also effective against this pest.
Scale are insect pests that feed on plant sap and look like small bumps on leaves or stems. Control damage from this pest by scouting, introducing natural predators, applying horticultural oils or insecticidal soap, and pruning and discarding infested plant parts or whole plants. Be sure to disinfect tools and always use a sanitary growing media and containers. Note that healthy plants are more resistant to pests and disease.
Mealybugs are small, white, soft-bodied insects that feed on plant sap. They are covered in powdery wax, which gives them a cottony appearance. They reproduce and spread rapidly. Inspect plants regularly for signs of an infestation, including white, cottony masses on foliage. Always check new plants before bringing them into the greenhouse. Remove any highly infested plants from the greenhouse for quarantine or disposal. Introduce beneficial insects like ladybugs, lacewings, and parasitic wasps as biological controls for mealybug populations and apply insecticidal soap or horticultural oils to disrupt lifecycles and feeding. Maintaining a sanitary greenhouse and eliminating debris can deter pest infestations.
Disease
This plant isn't prone to disease. Root rot may develop with overwatering. Take preventative measures in your greenhouse. Water at the base of each plant in the morning, allowing the soil to dry between waterings. Use sanitary tools, growing media, and containers. Provide good airflow and space containers for adequate circulation and sunlight around the base of each plant.
Root Rot occurs in poorly drained or overly wet soil, which becomes the host for several types of fungi. It causes stunted growth, wilting, and root system decay. Prevention is the best treatment, and you will avoid most root rot problems by using clean, well-draining media, appropriate containers, and good watering practices for finishing seedling plugs. Inspect plants for signs of disease regularly. Repot infected plants in well-draining soil, adjust your watering schedule, provide better airflow, and use a fungicide if needed.
Planting Baltic Blue Liners
We recommend planting four to six rooted plugs per 4-, 6-, or 10-inch container. Use well-drained soil and completely bury the ellepots evenly spaced in the container.
Rooted Cuttings
Cuttings vary in size between different plant families. These rooted starter plants will arrive ready to be transplanted in to your final container. If they are to be used in a landscape application, you will need to establish them in a 4 inch pot or an 1801 before planting outside.

Before we take this relationship any further...
It looks like this is the first time you've added anything to your cart.
We just wanted to remind you that we are a wholesale starter plant company that sells to businesses, schools, clubs, and other non-profits. State law dictates that you must be growing for resale to order from us since we are not collecting sales tax.
If we aren't a match, we understand. It's not you, it's us.
We would look awful in orange jumpsuits.
