Care

General Maintenance:This plant may require repotting once a year, preferably in the spring. Does not require pruning other than for aesthetic purposes.

Temperature:Prefers temperatures of 18 – 27 Celsius. Ensure temperatures do not drop below 15.

Light:Tolerates low to bright levels of indirect light. Prefers a bright, indirect light location.

Watering:Water once the top 1in – 2in of the soil feels dry. Do not overwater. Aglaonema appreciate some humidity, but can tolerate less that other tropical plants. For best results, use a pebble tray filled with water underneath your plant or mist once a week. Reduce watering in winter months.

Soil:A peat-based potting soil with lots of perlite works best. As well, consider mixing in a bit of a bark-based orchid mix. Keep your soil loose and not too densely packed into your pot. Prefers nitrogen rich soil.

Fertilizer:Use a slow release fertilizer once a month during the growing season.
