Aglaonema Care

Posted by Hulya Mehmet on

Aglaonemas are often vibrant and colorful, with strikingly patterned leaves. Because they’re so easy-going, Aglaonemas are perfectly suited for a modern living room or office, dim bedroom, or cozy study. Because of their tolerance for both moist and dry conditions, and the fact that they will thrive with low light, they are a perfect choice for less than ideal light conditions or forgetful plant owners.

 

Light

Your Aglaonema prefers bright indirect light but can adapt to low light.

Water

Water your Aglaonema when the top 50% of the soil is dry. Water until liquid flows through the drainage hole at the bottom of the pot and discard any water that has accumulated in the saucer.

Humidity

Your Aglaonema prefers a humid environment. Mist often.

Temperature

Your Aglaonema prefers temperatures in the between 15 and 25’s. Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.

Food

Feed once a month during the spring and summer with a liquid fertilizer for indoor plants.

Toxicity

Your Aglaonema is moderately toxic to pets and humans. Typically, ingestion will cause mouth and stomach irritation and possible vomiting.

Additional Care

If you find the tips of your plant’s leaves dry out and turn brown, it may be caused by your tap water, which can contain salts, chlorine, and fluoride. If you do not have a filtration system, leaving the tap water in an open container overnight before watering can help remove some of the chlorine and fluoride.
