There is enormous variety in leaf sizes and shapes within cultivated varieties of this genus. They are very popular all over the world as indoor plants, but here in South East Queensland many can be used very effectively in the landscape also.

Pothos

Looking very similar to a climbing Philodendron but typically with yellow variegations, the pothos is a popular plant for hanging baskets but can also be grown up trees etc in gardens for a jungle effect.
