Overview

  • Common Names: Chinese Evergreen
  • Family: Araceae

Characteristics of Aglaonema Chinese Evergreen

  • Leaves: Aglaonema features broad, glossy leaves that come in a variety of colors, including green, silver, and variegated patterns. The leaves are often oval-shaped and can have unique markings that vary by cultivar.
  • Growth Habit: Chinese Evergreens are typically bushy and upright, growing to about 1 to 3 feet (30 to 90 cm) tall, depending on the variety.

Care Tips of Aglaonema Chinese Evergreen

  • Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light conditions. However, the vibrant colors and patterns may fade in lower light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
  • Watering: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot. In the growing season (spring and summer), you may need to water more frequently.
  • Humidity: Thrives in higher humidity levels, making it suitable for kitchens or bathrooms. If your environment is dry, consider misting the leaves or using a humidity tray.
  • Temperature: Ideal temperatures range from 65°F to 80°F (18°C to 27°C). Keep it away from cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.

Soil

Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a standard houseplant mix or one designed for aroids. Adding perlite can enhance drainage.

Fertilization

Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season. Reduce or stop fertilization in fall and winter.

Propagation

Aglaonema Chinese Evergreen can be propagated through:

  • Stem Cuttings: Take cuttings with a few leaves and nodes, placing them in water or soil until they root.
  • Division: During repotting, you can divide the plant into smaller sections.

Benefits

  • Air Purification: Chinese Evergreens are known for their ability to purify indoor air, helping to filter out toxins.

Notes

  • Toxicity: Aglaonema Chinese Evergreen is mildly toxic if ingested, so it’s best to keep it out of reach of pets and young children.
