[edit] Merge
I believe these two articles ought to be merged, as this article cites "Devil's Ivy" as a nickname. Devil's Ivy says it is "Pothos", and Houseplant cites "Golden Pothos" and links to Epipremnum pinnatum. -- Sy / (talk) 20:35, 23 May 2006 (UTC)
- Done. There was no additional useful info to add from that page. - MPF 09:32, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Photo
Unless there's any objection, I'm going to remove the low-res picture of the Pothos 'in action'. The quality is really low, though I appreciate the spirit. Looks like that's the only wikipedia contribution the user has done. I'll wait a few days and if I don't read any objection on this page, I'll remove it... --nathanbeach 20:51, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] "Money Plant" also refers to a succulent
A completely different plant, which I have yet to identify.
This succulent may be called "money plant" because the succulent leaves look like pieces of old-style threaded Chinese money.
In London (at least), it is common to have one of these plants in a Chinese place of business as a harbinger of prosperity.
(I've just had mine stolen, so shall now have to look up what it's called). —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.35.164.244 (talk) 12:34, 29 January 2007 (UTC).
Right -- enough chatter.
The plant I am referring to is the "Money Tree" or "Jade Plant", http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/filmnetwork/A1084664 Crassula ovata. The similarity in name merits either disambiguation or a referral to Jade Plant.

[edit] Flowers?
I have had five pothos plants at my workstation for about two years (I "rescued" them from an area near the office ladies' room, where they weren't getting any sunlight). They share a 1/2-liter bottle of Poland Spring once a week, and thank goodness, are faring well. However, I've never seen them sprout any flowers. Is it something I'm doing wrong? --204.246.229.232 20:06, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
