If you love prayer plants such as Calatheas, but struggle to keep them alive, you should try this much easier and just as dazzling genus!

The Aglaonema 'Red Fire' is a tropical plant, but it's not fussy. For it to thrive, give this plant bright, indirect light, and only water when most of the soil feels dry. You don't need to watch over this one, it is a plant which thrives on neglect and is fine with a slightly shadier and draughty spot than some of your other tropical plants.

Humidity is appreciated but they can withstand average household humidity, just keep it away from radiators so the leaves don't crisp up. We find this genus to be super chill, but they are sensitive to overwatering, due to their thick roots and fleshy stems, so be gentle with your watering schedule. Because of these thick roots, we recommend repotting every 1-2 years in an airy and chunky soil.

How to care for Aglaonema 'Silver Queen'

  • Lighting: Can tolerate low light, but thrives in bright light. Avoid direct sun. East, West and North facing windows suit best.
  • Watering: Water once the pot is almost completely dry.
  • Humidity: Can grow in average household humidity, but will grow quicker and fuller in higher levels.
  • Temperature: Resilient to temperature fluctuations, but thrives in 18-27°C
  • Soil Preference: A chunky and airy mix with moisture retentive properties. We recommend the Monstera & Philodendron mix.
  • Good to Know: Due to their thick root system, we recommend repotting Aglaonemas around every 1-2 years.
