How to tell it apart from look-alikes
Note: this is Epipremnum pinnatum, not Epipremnum aureum like standard pothos. The "Pothos" common name is shared, but Cebu Blue is a different species and will produce split leaves at maturity (regular pothos almost never splits indoors).
Pet safety: Cebu Blue Pothos is toxic to cats and dogs per the ASPCA. Verify on ASPCA.
