Encompassing a variety of leaf sizes, shapes and colors, tropical vines are a versatile crop that can be used in baskets, combinations, holiday bowls and more.
Who among us has never owned a pothos plant? I believe you won’t find too many that haven’t had one in their home at some point, whether as a child, or currently as an adult. Pothos are part of a wide variety of tropical vines commonly produced for our industry. All in the family Araceae are scindapsus, epipremnum and philodendron. They encompass a wide variety of leaf sizes, shapes and colors. You can find them used in baskets, pots, and the spiller parts of combos. The holiday season wouldn’t be complete without ‘Hawaiian’ pothos or marble queen spilling out of your poinsettia bowls!
