Pruning of pothos should be carried out according to the size of the plant. Generally speaking, some potted pothos have relatively thick brown columns, so half of the leaves and branches of the pothos need to be removed. Prune them all so that the side hairs of pothos will grow around the brown pillars, creating a beautiful shape.

If the pothos grows relatively small, it needs to be pruned from the bottom, about 1/3 of the height of the plant, and then all the aging leaves and branches are pruned. New leaves will grow out, thus renewing the growth of the plant.
