Care Tips for Aglaonema

✔️ Light – Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light. Avoid direct sunlight as it may scorch the leaves.
✔️ Watering – Keep the soil slightly moist but not soggy. Allow the top inch of soil to dry before watering. Overwatering can cause root rot.
✔️ Humidity – Enjoys moderate to high humidity. If the air is too dry, misting the leaves occasionally can help.
✔️ Temperature – Thrives in temperatures between 18-30°C (65-85°F). Avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
✔️ Soil – Well-draining soil mix, such as peat-based potting soil with perlite or sand, works best.
✔️ Fertilizer – Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer once a month during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding in winter.
✔️ Pruning – Trim yellow or damaged leaves to promote new growth and maintain its shape.
✔️ Pests – Watch out for spider mites, mealybugs, and aphids. Wipe leaves with a damp cloth or use insecticidal soap if needed.
✔️ Toxicity – Aglaonema is toxic to pets and humans if ingested, so keep it out of reach of cats, dogs, and small children.
