That gives the plant a tighter, more sculptural look than standard Epipremnum aureum and makes it stand out even before the vines begin to lengthen. This is why

Epipremnum aureum 'Shangri La' – curled-leaf pothos with a compact, sculptural look

Epipremnum aureum 'Shangri La' is one of the strangest-looking pothos forms in cultivation. Instead of flat, open leaves, it produces thick, twisted foliage that stays folded, crinkled, and curled as it matures. That gives the plant a tighter, more sculptural look than standard Epipremnum aureum and makes it stand out even before the vines begin to lengthen.

This is why 'Shangri La' works differently from other pothos on a shelf or in a hanging pot. It still trails or climbs over time, but the curled leaves make the plant look denser, more textured, and less flowing than broad-leaved forms such as 'Marble Queen' or standard golden pothos. The result is architectural rather than soft.

What makes Epipremnum 'Shangri La' look so different

  • Leaf form: Leaves stay twisted, curled, and partly folded instead of flattening out in the usual pothos way.
  • Surface texture: The foliage feels thicker and more structured than in standard Epipremnum aureum, with visible ridging and irregular contours.
  • Colour: Most plants stay deep green, sometimes with lighter green or yellow-green variation depending on the clone and growing conditions.
  • Plant shape: Young plants often look dense and upright at first, then become more trailing or climbing with age.
  • Growth character: Compared with typical pothos forms, the habit is usually more compact and visually tighter.
  • Indoor presence: Even a small plant looks distinct because the curled foliage changes the whole silhouette.

Species background and what the name 'Shangri La' refers to

  • Accepted species: Epipremnum aureum, a member of Araceae
  • Native origin of species: Mo'orea in French Polynesia
  • Natural habit of the species: Tropical climber that uses aerial roots to move across trunks and other surfaces.
  • Trade use: 'Shangri La' is commonly sold as a curled-leaf or “Sleeping Pothos” type of Epipremnum aureum.
  • Indoor flowering: Like other cultivated forms of Epipremnum aureum, it is grown for foliage and flowers are extremely rare indoors.
  • Toxicity: Plant tissue contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals and is not safe for pets or people to chew.

Care priorities for Epipremnum aureum 'Shangri La' indoors

  • Light: Bright, indirect light keeps growth compact and helps the plant produce stronger, better-shaped leaves. It tolerates dimmer placement, but growth usually loosens and slows.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly, then let roughly the top 30–40% of the substrate dry before watering again. Constant wetness around the roots leads to more trouble than a short dry pause.
  • Substrate: Use a loose, airy mix that drains well but still holds some moisture. A blend based on potting mix or coco coir with bark and perlite works well.
  • Humidity: Average indoor humidity is usually enough, though around 40–60% helps new leaves develop more cleanly.
  • Temperature: Aim for 18–29°C and avoid prolonged cold, cold drafts, or a wet root zone in cool conditions.
  • Feeding: Apply a balanced liquid fertilizer at low to moderate strength every 4–6 weeks while the plant is actively growing.
  • Repotting: Repot when roots fill the pot heavily or when the substrate has broken down and no longer dries evenly. Increase pot size only slightly.

How 'Shangri La' behaves when trailing, climbing, or being cut back

  • As a trailing plant: Left unsupported, the stems eventually lengthen and hang, but the curled leaves keep the plant looking denser than flatter-leaved pothos.
  • As a climber: On a pole, plank, or trellis, aerial roots can attach and support stronger upward growth over time.
  • Pruning: Cutting just above a node helps maintain a fuller shape and keeps long, bare stretches from developing.
  • Propagation: Stem cuttings with at least one node root readily in water or lightly moist substrate when kept warm.
  • Water culture and mineral substrates: This form can adapt to water culture or inert mineral substrates if the transition is gradual and the nutrient supply stays steady.
  • Routine upkeep: Because the leaves stay folded, check hidden surfaces regularly for dust, trapped debris, or early pest activity.

Problems that are easy to misread on Epipremnum 'Shangri La'

  • Naturally curled leaves: The twisted foliage is the defining feature of the cultivar and should not be mistaken for dehydration by default.
  • Yellow leaves: Usually point to roots staying wet too long, poor drainage, or a potting mix that has compacted.
  • Soft stems or blackened nodes: Commonly indicate rot after wet and cold conditions around the roots.
  • Drooping growth: Often linked to drought stress, root trouble, or sudden temperature drop rather than the curled leaf form itself.
  • Small, weak new growth: Usually caused by low light, depleted substrate, strong root congestion, or missed feeding over time.
  • Pests: Mealybugs, spider mites, thrips, and scale can hide more easily in the folded foliage, so regular inspection matters more than on flatter-leaved forms.

Name notes for Epipremnum aureum 'Shangri La'

Epipremnum comes from Greek and refers to growth upon a trunk, matching the species’ natural climbing habit. aureum means “golden,” referring to the yellow-marked wild type rather than the deep green look usually seen in this form. The name 'Shangri La' is used commercially for this curled-leaf selection, while “Sleeping Pothos” refers to the way the leaves appear folded or half-closed.

Choose 'Shangri La' if you want texture instead of ordinary trailing foliage

If you want an easy indoor climber with unusual leaf structure rather than standard flat pothos foliage, Epipremnum aureum 'Shangri La' is a strong choice. With bright indirect light, an airy mix, and a sensible watering rhythm, it stays compact, distinctive, and much more sculptural than typical Epipremnum forms.

Need lots of connectivity + charging. EXCELLENT.
Color: Gray
Problems with my original USB hub required something better. This unit has allowed me to connect all my peripherals to my laptop and I haven't had any problems with the USB port reliability I was dealing with. I'm using two hubs in series and now everything is working perfectly.

Yes, I wish I'd bought this on Black Friday, but still no regrets
Color: Gray
If you use a lot of add-ons like I do you won't regret buying this hub. The number of connection PLUS high power charging ports works for me. Printer, scanner, mouse dongle, phone, tablet, external drive, flash key all connect with zero problems to my Win 11 laptop. Saves my laptop ports from wear and provides a central location for charging my stuff. Solid metal construction, touch switches for each port, even slots forSDd and micro sd cards makes great design and features. Had a decent usb 3 hub but this one SO much better, good value

well made, nicely built, fast and everything fits firmly
Color: Gray
Sleek and well made, heavier than my old one, as it seems better built in every way. I love the flush power buttons, they don't get accidentally pushed in because of the firmness of the buttons, not hard, just not overly easy like some cheaper hubs. The color is nice looking, the lights are subtle but easily identify each port and the main thing, it's fast. My old USB hub was decidedly slow and often under-powered. It did not always work with some demanding devices. But as soon as I plugged this in, all my devices were recognized and worked correctly. This was a great buy.

Had some questions and needed to test it, here's the verdict!
Color: Black
No pictures, but I wished to get this review out as soon as possible because I'm very happy with my purchase. My last USB hub from aother brand broke immediately as soon as I got it which is why I wanted to purchase this as an "upgrade" for the higher voltage and more port options. Firstly I really appreciate that they gave both a USB 3.0 to USB-C and a USB-C to USB-C cable for the power depending on what type of port you have on your computer. The extra cable is always appreciated. I had a bunch of questions stemming from other reviews so I tested them. When you press a button nearby any port, the light goes on. When you hold it, it goes off. When the light is on, it powered my external drive, and when I hold-pressed it off, the drive on my computer disappeared as it should when no power is going to it. I'm glad that works perfectly. Also, it takes 16 seconds to recognize my 8TB drive. It seems a tiny bit long, but not too long, I'm pretty patient. For the SD and Micro SD card slot, there is no on and off power buttons. But they DO work. This was important for me as it was one of the reasons I bought it. The quick charging also works as intended. Also, I wondered what size it was- it's 8.75in long, 2in width, and a measly 0.65in heightwise. Every cord included is slightly larger than 3ft so there should be no problems with connecting it, though maybe it's too many wires for some. One thing I was concerned about was that a reviewer said the ports were very tight, and they are. I thought I was gonna break the ports by connecting a USB, but thankfully it didn't break. I don't know how realiable that is over time, though I imagine because of the buttons, the idea is to connect them once and if you want to not use it, to simply press the button to turn them off. So I think I'll do that once I get all my USBs set into place. If it breaks any port in that process down the line, I'll update my review. And based on the manual, here are the speeds: USB 3.0 & USB C - Max 5GB/sec data speed, Max 5V/1.5A power SD and Micro SD Slots - Read 50-104MB/sec, Write 30-80MB/sec (Subject to memory card speed and computer USB ports) USB QC Ports - No speed or power given Total power supply: Output DC 12V/7.5A (Input AC 100V~240V / 50Hz~60Hz / 2A) The power supply is a big brick LOL. But I appreciate the power, thanks. It's very easy to use overall, I just plug something in, turn the light on, expect it to work and it does. Besides it taking great force to plug a USB in, everything else is exactly what I wanted. Glad I bought this. Edit, a month or two later: The USB ports all still are working, but I noticed some external drives don't have enough power to work, even with the 8V, so I'm docking a point. I should be able to plug at least one in with a few other things connected, but this makes it a little less functional for my usage.

Just what I needed
Color: Black
Never given!give 5 stars. But, this got it because exceeded what I was expecting. Purchased because new computer slots were inconvenient and more new devices are using usb ports and having powered ports was essential. Have used for several months and keep finding more things needing it. It was more than I expected/needed at the time .But, was designed for growth I was not expecting. Getting excellent connections, speed, and reliability even though I’ve nearly doubled the devices I planned on using. To be clear the system I connected to is all about performance and top of the line hardware. I was a performance engineer in a previous position and am very picky with this system setup. I’ve tested the hardware several times tuning things and it’s never the bottleneck. The original purchase was intended as a short term fix when I needed something yesterday and as stated b4 it has earned a place in my permanent setup. Would buy again and would explore other offerings by manufacture.
