Aglaonema is an unpretentious crop. A pot with a plant can be placed not only on the windowsill, but also on the floor.
Pot size
The growth rate of aglaonema is low; for good development and large growth of leaves, its root system must be kept in close quarters.
A low pot with a small volume is ideal. Preferably with holes at the bottom, as the soil needs good ventilation.
Where to put aglaonema
Grows well in most conditions and will cope with both bright and indirect light and shaded positions.
It is not recommended to place only in direct sunlight.
Aglaonema is one of the few variegated plants that grows well in shady areas, and this advantage makes it very popular.
How to grow aglaneoma
Aglaonema requires high air humidity. In dry air, the leaves become deformed, do not unfold well, and their tops and edges dry out.
Therefore, aglaonema needs to be sprayed regularly.
To increase humidity, you can group plants or place the plant on a tray with damp pebbles, peat or expanded clay.
How often should you water Aglaonema
This is a fairly high temperature in the room, so aglaonema needs plenty of moisture.
This is watered daily, but it's best to start with small amounts.
Additionally, it is better to spray the leaves with a spray bottle.
