Aglaonema Red

PLANT INFO

The name aglaonema is derived from the Greek ‘Aglos’, meaning bright, and ‘nema’, meaning thread, because of those variegated patterns on its leaves. There are a huge number of different varieties and colours.

If you mist her once a week or so it will really help the health of her leaves. Or let her steam in the bathroom. She’s a good plant for travellers as she’ll be just fine if she goes without water for a couple of weeks.

It’s a cinch to care for. It needs very little water and is happy to live in most light conditions. As with most brightly coloured plants, you’ll notice its foliage is brighter if it gets more light. And when it gets the right amount of light it is spectacular.
