Aglaonema Siam 4" Pot

Aglaonema 'Siam,' often called the Siam Chinese Evergreen, is a striking houseplant known for its vibrant, red-tinted foliage. The large, lush leaves feature a mix of deep green and red-pink hues, making it a perfect decorative plant that adds a tropical feel to any indoor space.

Aglaonema 'Siam' Care Tips:

1. Light:

Thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light conditions, making it ideal for offices and shaded indoor spots. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch its colorful leaves.

2. Soil:

Use a well-draining potting mix, enriched with materials like perlite and orchid bark to ensure proper aeration and drainage. Avoid using peat moss.

3. Watering:

Water when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Aglaonema 'Siam' benefits from consistent moisture without becoming waterlogged.

4. Humidity:

Prefers moderate to high humidity levels. If the air is particularly dry, consider using a humidity tray or occasional misting.

5. Temperature:

Ideal temperature range is 65-80°F (18-27°C). Protect from cold drafts and keep above 60°F (15°C) for optimal growth.

6. Fertilization:

Feed monthly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced, diluted liquid fertilizer. Reduce feeding during fall and winter.

7. Propagation:

Propagate by division or stem cuttings, either rooted in water or soil, to grow new plants.
