Pickup in Normal, Illinois
Golden Pothos, already rooted
Each jar holds a Golden Pothos cutting that has already grown its own roots — usually two to four inches of them — set in clear glass with colored stones and shells. It's a living plant on day one, not a cutting you have to nurse into existence.
Every plant comes with my free 21-page care guide, so nobody has to guess what to do next.
How to get one
Each jar is put together by hand, so no two are identical — the plants above are typical of what goes out, not a fixed catalog.
If you're in or near Normal, Illinois: search Facebook Marketplace for pothos in the Normal area. Whatever is ready is listed there, and that's always the current picture.
You can also message me on Facebook — I post each batch as it's ready, and we'll arrange a pickup time.
What you're getting
Every jar leaves the same way
Established roots
Two to four inches of healthy water roots, grown before the plant is ever offered. No waiting and hoping.
A finished arrangement
Clear glass, colored stones, and shells, set so the stem sits upright and the leaves stay above the waterline.
The full care guide
A free 21-page download covering light, water, feeding, troubleshooting, propagation, and moving to soil.

Why I don’t ship plants
The jar is the product. It holds water, stones, and shells arranged so the plant sits correctly — and none of that survives a courier. I could ship a bare cutting in a bag, but that isn’t what I make.
So the plants stay in Normal. My artwork and coloring books ship anywhere.
Before you buy: pets and children
Golden Pothos contains insoluble calcium oxalate crystals, and the ASPCA lists it as toxic to dogs and cats. Chewed leaves or stems can cause mouth pain, drooling, vomiting, and difficulty swallowing.
It's a lovely plant that belongs out of reach of animals and small children — not a plant to be afraid of, but one to place thoughtfully. The care guide covers this properly, including who to call if something is eaten.

Questions
About the plants
Do you ship?
No — pickup only, in Normal, Illinois. The jars hold water and stones and simply don't travel. The artwork ships anywhere.
Is the plant already rooted?
Yes. Every cutting has established water roots before I offer it, usually two to four inches. You're buying a living plant, not a gamble.
Do I have to put it in soil eventually?
No. Pothos will live in water indefinitely given clean water, decent light, and nutrients. Moving to soil is optional — the free guide walks through it step by step if you decide you want to.
How often do I change the water?
Top it off weekly and fully change it every one to two weeks — sooner if it looks cloudy or smells. That's genuinely most of the job.
Is it safe around cats and dogs?
No. It's toxic if chewed, so keep it out of reach. Cats climb, so "high up" isn't automatically safe — a hanging spot away from jumping-off points works better.
