Aglaonema crete (Chinese Evergreen)

This species of Aglaonema has fantastic leaf colouration and will brighten up any space. It's easy to care for and grows fairly quickly.

Please note, the planter is not included in the price.

Watering

Water regularly during warmer months but allow the soil to dry out between each watering and make sure the roots are never sitting in water for a prolonged period. Water less frequently during colder months.

Light requirements 

Will do well with plenty of indirect light but can also thrive in low light conditions. Prefers not to get too much direct sunlight.

Care tips

• Avoid placing the planter next to radiators or draughty windows
• Carefully wipe the leaves from time-to-time to remove any dust
• Prune out any brown leaves or stems by cutting as close to the next stem or the base of the plant as possible
• Use some fertiliser during warmer months i.e. April to September (little and often is best for consistent growth)
