Description

The aglaonema is a highly decorative plant with several interesting varieties. There seems to be a little controversy in the books over whether this plant is easy or difficult to grow. The simple rule to follow is this: the lighter the variegation, the more light it needs. Otherwise, these are slow-growing, dependably attractive and make excellent foliage plants. They have large, narrow oval leaves on short stems.

Because of their high humidity requirements, some growers consider aglaonema to be greenhouse plants. It’s true they will do best in the warm, humid and bright environment of a greenhouse, but they can successfully be grown indoors by coming as close as possible to these conditions. The number one rule to remember with aglaonema is to keep them warm and moist. If you do this, you’ll be rewarded with a long-lasting, stable houseplant that will not soon outgrow its pot.

 

Plant Care

 

  • Loves bright filtered light to keep it looking bright and bold.
  • Water thoroughly in the summer, and mist often to raise humidity. During the winter, reduce watering but do not let the plant dry completely.
  • Soil should be well-drained and fertile, rich in organic content.
  • 20 – 35°C
  • Slow-release pellets or liquid fertilizer during the growing season.
