Happy Leaf is a name used mostly to sell Manjula, but since Manjula is patented only one nursery can sell them and other rename it Happy Leaf, Harlequin etc... If you find Happy Leaf different it's because Manjula is a slightly unstable variety and Happy Leaf are a propagate of propagate while the original nursery only sell Manjula with very typical leaves and discard the less perfect cuttings. Snow Queen is originally the name used by some australian shops to sell both Marble Queen and N'Joy, regardless of the level of variegation. The Pothos collectors took the name and reused it for highly variegated MQ but since it's unstable and sensitive to environmental conditions I dont think it's a "thing".
Wow this is an awesome bit of knowledge, thanks for sharing I wasn't aware of most of that and I am sure everyone in the comments learned something new too 😊 💚🌿
Harlequin is actually different from Manjula. Harlequin has even more white than Manjula. I can see some sellers selling Harlequin as Holland Manjula at leas here in the Philippines.
It can be an endless discussion because Harlequin is not a patented variety. Many unpatented pothos names are used to sell patented ones without the copyright. And since they are not the original seller they dont select the strands carefully enough to perfectly match the patent. I just bought a 'White Panther'. It's just a 'Pearl & Jade' really, but on 3 branches, one have lost the green speckles and the other is loosing the silver on it's last leaf. The patented pot would have been pruned better. In another shop I have seen pots without a name, what was planted was obliously single node Manjulas but the new stems were looking like Manjula, Harlequin, N'Joy and Marble Queen. Because it's normal for them to switch to one another sometimes and it happened.
I do too find Manjula to be a slow grower. I move my plants outside for the summer. Amazingly, it started growing faster. The plant is sitting in a bright indirect light in very high humidity and a high heat. I think it is just finicky about the conditions it is in. Love your videos! Thank you for creating conversation platform for us, Planty enthusiasts! 😁
Awwww thanks glad uoy are enjoying and I can create a safe space for planty peeps to chat 😊 yeah definately light is a big factor I think with this one
Hey from South Africa 👋🇿🇦! Although Monsteras aren't native here, I can tell you that they grow very well here-probably because of our mild winters- I have seen them growing up trees, walls of houses/apartment buildings as well as in a 'flower bed' in an office building- all of wich have MASSIVE leaves! I have yet to see one with variegation 😂. Also ivy grows wild here, but it probably grows like that everywhere 😂. Stay healthy 🤗💚!
Oh wow yeah definately I would imagine the weather in SA is definately very favourable for monstera. Yep ivy is pretty much a weed in most places, interesting it does so well there too 😊
I have my Manjula in an East-facing window in west central Florida, U.S. and it has been a surprisingly prolific grower. I’ve only had it since late winter and I’m pretty sure it’s going to need a repot by the end of this growing season. :)
I bought a manjula pothos in 2020 for £6 from a local nursery. It was labelled Epipremnum Happy leaf. A fellow instagrammer told me it was a Manjula. I found it was extremely slow and it had very short internodal space. Leaves also went crispy. I found it very fussy and eventually gave up on this plant and probably won't buy another. I replaced it with an Njoy this year and I also have Marble queen which I'm glad to say is growing much better than the Manjula.
I just love my manjula and it is growing so well for me. I have it on the side of my south/west facing window so it doesn't get the sun too much. It had to be cut several times and it is now long as a curtain. I am obsessed with the variation of the coloring of the leaves.
interesting! My manjula has been totally easy going, I've just had it in an E facing window where it grew happily all summer. Now its in my big fishtank terrarium rooting into sphagnum fer propagation. It's never hinted at rotting or anything else, I have it in my standard aroid mix. A plant I like a lot!! :) And yes ivy - a declared environmental weed in my part of Australia!
I love your idea of this being a resource and I am happy to share my experiences growing indoor and outdoor in FL, USA. This plant is easy to get at big box stores every few months or so. It grows the same as my marble queen. I would say it really sizes down when cut and slower to size up again but a plank helps! I grow in chunky aroid mix no pest pressures. The plant climbing my palm tree outdoors has leaves larger than my hand after 1 year. The indoor plant isn’t on a pole so not sizing up and putting out leaves more slowly. Easy to prop in water. It does revert if not enough light and variegation doesn’t seem to come back again once green in the stem. Thank you for sharing!
Also in the UK and had to cut my manjula back to one leaf about a year ago, had it in water for a very long time, it has really taken off now that it is back in soil.
Haha, watching away and thought "I think he's talking about me?!" So true, weeds are very particular and often endemic to this big old world we live in.
I love my Manjula. It grew really slow on the beginning, but I got it last fall so it didn't grow much over winter. Once spring hit i moved it to my porch and it has tripled in size it is by far my favorite plant on my porch.
So glad you posted this video! I was literally just watering my n joy thinking to myself how it’s not growing!! It is a very slow grower!! Mine accidentally got burnt by my grow lights and I’m dying for it to get new leaves so I can chop all the burned ones off
Thank you! I found a massive 6in pot majula that has vines about 8in and found it at Walmart of all places for 20$. It has a little damage but overall healthy. Couldn't decide if I should keep it trailing or let it climb. She's definitely going to climb now! Thanks for all the great advice! Really enjoy your videos
Not so healthy now. Very amiture of me to think it was healthy from a box store. Finally repoted and root rot. Lost all but those 3 long vines now cut in half and propagating in water. Any helpful advice?
I think Manjula is a slow grower because not only it grows with variegation, it also grows with a more complex leaf shape and texture. I personally like pothos grown as bushy trailing plants than climbers.
Hi there. I just purchased Manjula pothos lately. About a foot tall with several leaves. I just hope it will grow under my care. I do agree with your observations to the other kinds of pothos. Like your channel.
You hit the mail on the head again with one, the Mandula. As long as it dries out it’s ok, but one time over watered, it’s a goner. Wish mine was a big an nice as yours 🥰 Funny went too Fla on Vaca an the Syngonium Angustatium is a weed growing everywhere. 😀💚
So I bought five last year two were in pots one's in a wall with a grow light it's about 2 ft tall one's in a pot it's about three and a half feet tall getting natural light one is still under the original grow light under the shade of an asparagus fern it is not as long but it is way more compact and I think it's my favorite
Here is some info :Epipremnum Aureum comes in various forms. green with white variegations are marble queen (marbled), manjula (marbled with green on outer), n' joy aka frosty (white and green no marbling), glacier (also no marbling but white, green and light green) and pearls and jade ( like manjula but green spots instead of marbling)
Also these names are country dependent. What we call a Snow Queen in Australia sometimes looks like a NJoy, Pearls & Jade and Glacier (depends on varigation though I've had all three variegations on the one plant 😅 so ours could possibly be a hybrid or something... but yeah our Snow Queen is definitely not a whiter Marble queen - as they're still a marble)
My Manjula is a bit slow, never suffered from a root rot, and would generally be fine except for one thing: I brought it from the shop with thrips and I can´t get rid of them no matter what I spray it with. Now I have a water propagated cutting growing in pon and all would be fine except for the thrips. Two leaves left... It seems that I´m going to loose the months-long battle with this one 😞
Love my new wish list Manjulas so appreciate this video. Going to try to coir pole it in the spring, so wish me luck 🤞🏾!But the Skeleton Key looks a little too weird for me 😂.
I bought one last month and while it's good, I have not gotten any new growth. It dose seem for me, that is is a slow grower. It also has a lot of brown spot on it's leaves when I bought it wich I assumed it was from the heat. It was out side and we are currently dealing with a heat wave which is why all my house plants had to come on🙂. But it is still a beautiful plant and am happy with it. I am hoping that next spring and summer it dose better
Definately will bounce back, but yeah I found it slow too, some of the people in the comments have found it fast too, so I think it does depend on the environment 😊
I have had three plants bought at the same time three years ago and they have not grown very fast at all but then again I was neglecting them a little more then I should bc the two in terracotta still are only one vine and the other one in the plastic pot is way more full and lush and I have taking so many cuttings from it
Here in the US, I've been told that this plant is a Pearls and Jade Pothos because it has the speckles. If it doesn't have the speckles, I'm told that's a Manjula Pothos. The Njoy is like the Manjula with NO speckles, but it has a smaller leaf than the Manjula
In Colorado we do not get variety or quantity of plants. I have never seen the manjula and finally found one 3” $10 quite high I thought. It also has a lot of speckling on it not the plain white and 2 greens. I will try and find that one. Also half the plant pushed out creamy variegated leaves while the other half had the variegated white and 2 greens. Weird
I live in New Zealand & worked in a garden centre & never have I heard of these being called weeds. We call them Kowhai, they are a popular tree to grow & attract beautiful birds to your garden. The prostrate variety was never that readily available where I worked. I’m sure it would make a wonderful bonsai?
I was of the impression that "Manjula" and "Happy Leaf" were the same. Apparently the names are copyrighted in some countries and growers have to give them new names, like philodendron "Birkin" is called "White Measure" in some countries. I think "Marble Queen" and "Snow Queen" are the same too, I had one bought as a MQ in a south facing window (it was in a corner so not much direct sun) and it was snow white and grew like crazy, placed darker and less white. I semi believe someone is just coming up with new names so they can push more plants on us
Good morning! Love watching your vids! I enjoy the vining plants but struggle with this one...may you know what causes melting brown spots? Its in high indirect light. Treat it like my other potho varieties...🙈
The Manjula is a lab created variety, so perhaps this is why it's slower growing? Due to the genetics of the plants it was created from. In fact I just googled and it was created with the name Epipremnum HANSOTI14 and is characterised by compact growth habit and slow, controlled growth
I really want a Manjula but I haven't been able to find it in stores. If I'm not mistaken Costa Farms is the only company that carries this plant in The US and my Local Home Depot stores do not get the best Costa Farms shipments. I have checked at Lowes but the only Costa Farms plants i see at lowes are Crotons, Ivys, and Dracaena. so the only option for me would be getting it online
I can’t seem to take my eyes off the plant behind you. The one that’s hanging. What plant is that please ❤️. Thank you so much for the wonderful video. My manjula suddenly had roots that disappeared so definitely root rot. I’m still wondering if I want it again. Wouldn’t call it as easy as other pothos. :)
I have just purchased a manjula & it is a lot more whiter than I expected. A couple of the leaves have developed reasonably sized brown marks on it😢 I have moved it to a brighter light situation - is this the correct thing to do?

So true, weeds are very particular and often endemic to this big old world we live in.
Definately, and it makes sense that some of them end up as houseplants as they are fighters in their local areas

Omg yes for wishlist !!!!
Need to get this beauty big time
So glad you posted this video! I was literally just watering my n joy thinking to myself how it’s not growing!! It is a very slow grower!! Mine accidentally got burnt by my grow lights and I’m dying for it to get new leaves so I can chop all the burned ones off
So glad you covered the manjula, I too have found it but more challenging than other pothos.
Love the new video style for this series. Looks great!
Awww thanks, I finally have better editing software now so trying some new things 😁
Thank you! I found a massive 6in pot majula that has vines about 8in and found it at Walmart of all places for 20$. It has a little damage but overall healthy.

Interesting about many houseplants being considered weeds in their native areas! Yes, I'd be interested in a wish list video!
Definately, it kinda makes sense I think, it kinda highlights that they can be hardy 😊 excellent I will get on that 💚🌿
I wish I could buy a cutting from you! I have never had success with that plant and it is so pretty!
These develop massive and beautiful leaves when they grow up a well constructed moss pole.
You hit the mail on the head again with one, the Mandula. As long as it dries out it’s ok, but one time over watered, it’s a goner. Wish mine was a big an nice as yours 🥰 Funny went too Fla on Vaca an the Syngonium Angustatium is a weed growing everywhere. 😀💚
Yeah it is so sensitive to overwatering for sure. Ohhhh I bet the syngoniums looked amazing 🤩
@@Houseplantygoodness They did, huge 20 ft tall ones everywhere. I’ll send you a pic if I can figure it out. 🤪😂
I have this plant and yes, indeed it is the slowest growing pothos.
I love that you provided a time stamp for ppl to skip your tangent lolololololol
I just wanted to be first in the comments. Hiiiieeeeeeeee!🤣
I love my manjula. Such an easy plant!
Hey 👋👋👋👋😁 yeah definately an easy one 😊
I'd love to hear what your wishlist is! I literally just looked up skeleton key pothos 😂
Manjula is the happy leaf.
N-Joy has only that name. Thats what i know, here in Germany.
In Australia an NJoy is called Snow Queen. It gets confusing at times.
@@meikahidenori oh thats a nice name ❤
So I bought five last year two were in pots one's in a wall with a grow light it's about 2 ft tall one's in a pot it's about three and a half feet tall getting natural light one is still under the original grow light under the shade of an asparagus fern it is not as long but it is way more compact and I think it's my favorite
Let it climb on the pole and it will take off. Mine pops 4 leaves a week in Florida. Bright light and pole.
That’s amazing. I need to move mine in more light. Thanks for the info.
Definately agree, it loooooves light
@@sherryporsch9349 It even takes direct morning sunlight pretty good.

I think you are enjoying may be a glacier Pothos.
Try steveleaves for the skeleton key epiprenium.
I wish I could, not sure if they deliver to the UK 😔

Wow so beautiful. What did you do to make it lushie.
My manjula pothos has only grown slightly taller- about one inch- since I purchased it over a year ago. 😓
Mine’s a friggin BRAT.
Have you ever tried using a Marble Queen to aid propagation instead of a golden pothos?
Mine just got shipped to me and some leafs are turning black. Help!!! It's such a small one, I don't want to loose it.
Slowest growing pothos that I own and my kitchen is FULL of them.
