aglaonema

Origin and care

Light requirement: partial shade to shade

The origin of the Aglaonema is Southeast Asia and belongs to the Arum family. The plant is found in the subtropical rainforests under the dense foliage. The plant grows slowly and the shelf life of this plant is very good and the plant also purifies the air. The Aglaonema requires little maintenance. Make sure the roots are not left standing in the water. Keep the soil slightly moist in summer and allow the plant to dry out between waterings in winter, this way the plant will remain at its best. If you spray the plant once in a while, this will reduce the chance of spider mites.

To keep the plant free of dust, it is wise to shower the plant once a quarter. Cover the soil so that it does not get wet and rinse the leaves both below and above. This also prevents pests.

The Aglaonema is an extremely strong plant!
