The money plant, also known as *Epipremnum aureum*, exhibits alternate phyllotaxy.

Here's what that means:

* Phyllotaxy: This term refers to the arrangement of leaves on a stem.

* Alternate: In this arrangement, a single leaf emerges at each node (the point where a leaf attaches to the stem), and the leaves alternate sides of the stem as they move upwards.

This alternating pattern helps maximize the leaf's exposure to sunlight, allowing for efficient photosynthesis.
