The Aglaonema crete’s soil should be kept moist at all times. Do not allow it to dry-out. Make sure not to overwater as this may encourage root rot. Moderation is the key.

Aglaonema thrives in most light levels. The lighter the leaf colour, more the light required. Plain, dark green varieties prefer near-shade, whereas the lighter, variegated types need well-lit conditions. Avoid direct sunlight.

Slow release fertiliser once a month during the growing season.

Does well in normal room temperature: 18-24°C, however avoid draughts as these can cause undesirable temperature fluctuations.

Chinese Evergreens can tolerate lower humidity than some other plants, yet it will still appreciate your efforts to improve surrounding humidity levels, either via regular misting or using a pebble tray.
