Epipremnum aureum Goldrush

Like a lot of you, our growers are always looking for new sports (mutations). We find a lot, but most aren’t distinctive enough or stable enough to make the cut. But Goldrush did. A sport from a Jessenia that went all green, Goldrush was like a switch flipped and this one is super colorful. Rather than showing off marbled variegation like its grandmother (or great-grandmother, Marble Queen), Goldrush concentrates its color in the new leaves.

Even though it looks different, it grows just like other Epipremnum varieties. It adores an abundance of light (natural or artificial is fine) and prefers being within a couple of feet of a good-sized, unobstructed east- or west-facing window (or the equivalent of with plant lights). It tolerates medium or even lower lighting conditions, but it won’t be as happy and the new growth will be more green than gold. It can take some morning sun through a window, particularly in Northern climates.

When it comes to watering, allow the top 25 percent or so of the potting mix to just start to dry before watering again. Take care not to overwater and swamp the potting mix. Both underwatering and overwatering can cause yellow/brown leaf edges.

This Epipremnum variety grows well in average household temperatures. Thanks to its tropical roots, it holds up to heatwaves and doesn’t require particular care when the mercury soars. Do try to keep it over about 60F/15.5C for best results.

It prefers above-average relative humidity (over 50 percent), but does just fine in average relative humidity levels, especially if you keep it consistently watered.
