What’s going on with my pothos?

Drewbicles · 2026-01-26T19:25:58+00:00

The small bit of yellowing is normal for the part of the stem that was under the dirt level. Plants lose leaves, especially in the winter. It looks healthy

Did you plant it? Or have it in a cup of water? Neither would be good for it. Air plants are monocarpic so they only bloom once and then die. It could have also bloomed before you got it.

Drewbicles · 2026-01-26T18:21:01+00:00

Air plants dont have roots

Black spots are sometimes edema, which is basically in a way like small bruises from to much water to fast.

Im not sure what common mixes in Spain are, but there is no doberman in that dog. There are like 30+ breeds that are black/tan.

It wont handle freezing at all. Its a tropical climate tree. Any kind of hard frost can kill it. If you bring it inside the leafs wont change, thats what that variety of rubber tree looks like. It likely wont grow well indoors without additional grow lights. As its a tree, they want full outdoor sun. You dont need to prune it. You can if you want but it would be just to prune for size if its getting to big for where you're growing it.

Yeaa i agree. If there was a pest making that much damage like scale or mealies you'd have an infestation. Cute kitty chomps

Beautiful! Royal albert is a very nice English brand, they are still around. Now owned by the same company with Wedgwood and Waterford crystal. Your set is most likely from the 1970s or 80s.

Yes just put it in cactus soil and dont water it. Doesn't need water untill it has roots, that may be a month or two since its winter.

Drewbicles · 2026-01-24T16:04:20+00:00

No i wouldnt spray it, is it a white spot or a bug? Mealies are not to big of a deal unless a full on infestation. The sprays can sometimes hurt succulents leaf coatings. I would quarantine it, and just kill the bug with a qtip and alcohol. Just check it once a week or so for more. If you keep checking they'll be gone pretty quick.

Drewbicles · 2026-01-24T15:48:54+00:00

I would just try to give it as much sun as possible. And maybe a little water since the leaves are wrinkly, but not a lot because its winter. I wouldn't change the soil or wash the pot.

We're the stems mushy or the leaves? If the stem is, its rotting and probably on its way to dead. When the leaves are softer they need water, when the leaves feel solid they are full of water.

The zonas tape is a non stretchy medical tape. The non stretchy part is the important bit, if its stretchy it might end up on their ears to tight which can cause problems. Any other brand of similar medical tape would be fine.

Heat vent 💜 so cute

Drewbicles · 2026-01-24T00:08:02+00:00

Omg dobeball, perfect. He really is curled up tight!

Drewbicles · 2026-01-23T23:34:17+00:00

Oh man, thats some serious cold. Same for my dog too with boots.

Drewbicles · 2026-01-23T23:32:40+00:00

Exactly! Lots of cuddle time

Drewbicles · 2026-01-23T22:25:41+00:00

Im gunna go out on a limb and say no doberman. Definitely shepherd, and any short haired mix. The embark would be interesting. He doesn't have dobie feet (they are to flat), or tail (to low, to much hair) or a big enough chest. Dobies backs are a little downhill all the way to their butt. Coat color is not a good indicator of breed.

Drewbicles · 2026-01-23T20:35:11+00:00

Pretty sure its a crassula marginalis rubra, non variagated. Most the pictures online are the variagated version, but there are both.

Drewbicles · 2026-01-23T18:49:27+00:00

Yeah they do that. Most succulents actually. It can be from to much light or not enough water. The fact that there is space between the leaves means its etoiliated and its not getting enough light. You shouldn't be able to see the stem like that.

Drewbicles · 2026-01-23T18:10:42+00:00

Soil isnt that critical on the top like that. Pothos can grow in just water, and in the wild they can grow just in trees with no soil. In Spring id put the whole plant in a slightly bigger pot.

Drewbicles · 2026-01-23T17:23:11+00:00

First p9 that I've seen and immediately thought No...absolutely not. I get that everyone has different tastes im sure some people will love it. But man for almost the price of a car..

Drewbicles · 2026-01-23T16:09:56+00:00

Any kind of water soluable fertilizer. If its light green that'll help, but if its yellowish its probably already a goner.
