Caring for Your Aglaonema (Chinese Evergreen):
Keeping your Aglaonema happy and thriving is simple with these easy care guidelines:
- Light: Aglaonemas prefer bright, indirect light. While darker green varieties can tolerate low light, variegated types will showcase their best colors in brighter, indirect conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch their beautiful leaves.
- Watering: Allow the top 1-2 inches of soil to dry out completely before watering. Aglaonemas are more tolerant of underwatering than overwatering, which can lead to root rot. Ensure your pot has good drainage.
- Humidity: These tropical beauties appreciate average to high humidity. If your home air is dry, consider misting occasionally, using a pebble tray, or placing a humidifier nearby.
- Soil: Plant your Aglaonema in a well-draining potting mix. A standard indoor plant mix, possibly amended with perlite for extra drainage, works well.
- Temperature: Maintain consistent room temperatures between 18°C and 29°C (65°F and 85°F). Protect your plant from cold drafts, especially during winter.
- Fertilizing: Feed your Aglaonema with a balanced liquid houseplant fertilizer, diluted to half strength, every 2-4 weeks during its active growing season (spring and summer). Reduce or stop fertilizing in fall and winter.
- Pruning: Minimal pruning is usually needed. Remove any yellowing or damaged leaves to maintain its tidy appearance and encourage new growth.
