These golden pothos cuttings will make one or several great houseplants. Just trim lower leaves and place in semi-shade until rooted. Change water if it gets murky. Then pot, using good potting soil. Easy! Sorry, these can't be shipped to California. We make your cuttings when you order so they are fresh, then wrap them carefully and add plant food and our care guide. They are all at least 6 inches long. Pothos plants are the easiest of the "fresh air" plants to grow and care for. They have been shown to filter toxins from the air.They add oxygen too and apart from their beauty, are claimed to increase brainpower and productivity. Sorry we can't ship to California
