Epipremnum pinnatum Cebu Blue is a beautiful and highly collectable variety of the Epipremnum pinnatum species, native to the island of Cebu in the Philippines. It belongs to the Araceae family and is admired for its shimmering, silvery-blue foliage and easy-growing nature.
The leaves are narrow, elongated, and slightly pointed, displaying a stunning metallic-blue sheen under bright light. In juvenile form, the leaves are smooth and oval, while mature plants develop fenestrations (natural splits and holes), giving them a dramatic, tropical look similar to a Monstera. The subtle variation in colour from silvery teal to cool green depending on lighting gives the plant a soft, ethereal quality.
This fast-growing, vining plant can be trained up a moss pole or trellis to encourage larger, fenestrated leaves, or it can trail gracefully from a hanging pot. Its versatility, combined with its low maintenance, makes it one of the most desirable Epipremnum varieties for both new and experienced plant enthusiasts.
Thrives in bright, indirect light. Can tolerate medium light but may lose its silvery-blue sheen in dimmer conditions. Avoid harsh direct sun, which can cause leaf burn.
Water when the top 35 cm of soil feels dry. Keep the soil lightly moist in spring and summer, but never soggy. Reduce watering in winter when growth slows.
Temperature: Prefers 1828C. Protect from cold draughts and avoid temperatures below 15C.
Humidity: Average household humidity is fine, though slightly higher humidity (5070%) helps encourage larger, glossy leaves.
Use a free-draining, chunky aroid mix peat-free compost enriched with orchid bark, perlite, and coco coir. Repot every 12 years in spring to refresh the soil and give roots more room to grow.
Feed every 24 weeks in spring and summer with a balanced liquid fertiliser. Stop feeding in winter.
Trim long vines to encourage branching and maintain a tidy shape. Propagate easily from stem cuttings in water, moss, or soil.
A fast-growing vine capable of reaching 23 metres indoors with support. Juvenile leaves are silvery-blue and smooth, while mature climbing plants develop fenestrated, tropical foliage.
Yellowing leaves: Overwatering or poor drainage.
Leggy growth: Insufficient light.
Loss of sheen: Low light or dust build-up; wipe leaves regularly.
Pests: Occasionally mealybugs, thrips, or spider mites.
Named for its origin in Cebu, Epipremnum Cebu Blue is one of the most decorative pothos-type plants available. Its cool, metallic-blue leaves and climbing or trailing growth make it a beautiful and versatile addition to indoor plant collections. Like other Epipremnum species, it is also known for helping to purify indoor air.
