Aglaonema (Chinese Evergreen)

Care Requirements

• Light:
  Thrives in low-light conditions. Prefers indirect or filtered light for optimal growth.

• Watering:
  Performs best in consistently moist soil—avoid letting the soil dry out completely, but do not overwater or allow roots to sit in soggy soil.

• Soil:
  Requires well-draining, consistently moist soil for healthy development.

• Temperature:
  Grows best in temperatures between 68–77°F (20–25°C).

• Fertilizer:
  Feed monthly with a balanced liquid fertilizer during spring and summer growing seasons.

Care Tips

• Wipe leaves occasionally to remove dust and maintain optimal air-purifying function.

• Rotate the plant periodically for even growth.

• Avoid placing near heating or cooling vents.

Common Problems

• Yellowing leaves: May indicate overwatering or poor drainage.

• Brown leaf tips: Often caused by low humidity or dry air.

• Leaf drop: Can result from sudden changes in temperature or light conditions.

Additional Information

• Toxicity:
  This plant may be toxic to both humans and pets if ingested. Keep out of reach of small children and animals.

• Pest Resistance:
  Generally pest-resistant, though it may be susceptible in environments with poor air circulation or low humidity.

• Air Purification:
  Known for its air-purifying properties—helps remove indoor toxins such as carbon monoxide and benzene, while also improving ambient humidity levels.
