Description
Chinese evergreens are great, easy-care foliage plants for beginning plant parents and more than radiant enough to satisfy demanding houseplant aficionados. If you’re not already, this four-pack of assorted live aglaonemas will have you well on your way to becoming well-acquainted with this beautiful species and its cultivars. Along with the handsome deep green and generous silver-gray of Aglaonema commutatum, cultivars of the species display dazzling shades of red, pink, chartreuse, gold, green, cream, and more. These variegated wonders open up a world of possibilities with matching to decorative pots or other home décor elements. Leaf colors vary and so do the shapes. The large, glossy leaves are attached to short stems but may be oblong, elliptic, lance-shaped, or oval. The plants bear a resemblance to another houseplant favorite, dieffenbachias. Native to shady and humid Asian tropical forests, Chinese evergreens are slow-growing plants suitable for medium to bright, indirect light. They will tolerate low light but putting them in spots with brighter light will help maintain their variegation. Since they grow at a relaxed pace, you can enjoy your aglaonemas without having to immediately plot their next moves or wonder about pruning for space. They enjoy consistently lightly moist soil, but like many, many houseplants, they’re not fans of waterlogged soil. Water again when the top couple of inches of soil are dry. Rarely bloom as houseplants.
