Ultimate AGLAONEMA (Chinese Evergreen) CARE Guide - Ep 207

[@daniellemylastname2811]

Aglaonema are my favorite plants. I have over 20 different varieties and I am always looking for new ones. I don't understand why they aren't more popular than calathea or whatever they're called now. They don't care about humidity, they never get brown or crunchy, they aren't over dramatic, tantrum throwing toddler plants. They grow in all areas of my place, north facing, west facing, artificial, they don't care! They come in so many patterns and colors. I'll take them all!

That Aglonema tricolour OMG Such a beauty It was really good to see these lovely greens and love that planty talk

Hey Summer, this type of info for aglonemas is so so rare in the plant community! Now I have more appreciation and practical advice on how to grow this beautiful staple. Thank you so much ❤

[@elizaveta2681]

Hello from Russia, Moscow! It is very interesting for me to see your videos. My English is not very well but I understand most of your advises and it is a real pleasure to see your plants. Thank you for so much!

I love my aglaonema. they are reliable, easy, consistently healthy looking and they fill up empty spaces very nicely. :)

[@ikillprettythingz7947]

I love the camo tri color color sooo much 😍😍 it'll match my jacket.

[@carolfisch9750]

These plants are survivors. I have a red Siam which was growing great in a dark corner under a Soltech Aspect grow light. Then suddenly after 2 gorgeous years, stems got very leggy and starting snapping off weekly until I only had a few stems left. I tried rooting the top of leafy broken stems in water but a year later nothing. As a last resort I put the stems in potting soil and pumice mix. Low and behold every stem rooted and leafed out. Meanwhile my original pot which looked like a sad cut down forest, had new shoots start popping out of the soil and each 2-3 inch bare ‘trunk’ started sprouting new shoots out the tops. So now I have 3 pots filled with multiple 8-10 inch tall plants. This spring I will put them all together in one pot to make a nice bushy pot. Mother Nature can be pretty resilient sometimes.

[@tiffanyi5645]

Wow! I wish KZbin comments allowed pictures because I would love to see your plants!! Lol

[@carolfisch9750]

I am no expert. This is my only experience with aglonema. After watching more KZbins about them, it seems some varieties tend to get more leggy versus others. So either RedSiam is leggy type or I am doing something wrong. Ha. I just saw one youtube that said when her aglonema gets leggy she replanted it hiding more of the stem under the soil. Nice to learn all the hidden tricks..

[@carolfisch9750]

OMG. The KZbin was this one. Hand to face.

[@janecurtis5726]

Perfect timing! I never really had a deep appreciation of Aglaonemas but now I’m in love with them. I think a well grown plant is beautiful even if fairly common. My understanding is that the more colorful cultivars get floppier as they mature.

[@catbarnard2833]

I’ve been after an aglaonema for so long and this has just increased the desire haha. I really want more plants for my desk at home but it’s in my bedroom which is north-east facing, and I just feel like a green aglaonema would be perfect

[@cadeliamv.urbano9282]

Here in asia, we give agloanemas morning sunlight and put them indoors with indirect light. Since we live in a hotter climate, the sun is hotter and will totally scorch the leaves. There in cooler climates. I recommend to put them in direct sunlight since its 🥶 🧊

[@M_SC]

In cold climates it’s actually warmer inside than in warmer climates, in winter. Our walls are thicker and filled with insulation. Our windows have 2 lanes or sometimes 2 layers of window with a space between them. Heating systems are also more efficient or something. I was colder in japan and Taiwan and England in winter than i am in Canada.

[@farmerswifesince95]

I can't grow calathea in my dry house but my 3 aglaonema handle it just fine. So I have changed my wish list plant calathea ornata to the chocolate aglaonema. Same kind of look but probably won't die on me during the winter. 😊 Thanks for the tips. My silver bay was away from the cold but still managed to get a draft and the bottom leaves were doing exactly as you said. I cut them off and it seems to be ok now.

[@LaFranceBonjour]

mine grows in a bathroom where there is a window that faces north and the bathroom in the winter stays at a constant 52 degrees with low humidity, No grow lights or heaters and forgetful watering and it thrives.

[@suksomchannel19]

sometimes I forget to water my aglaonemas but thanks GOD, they are still find until now

[@kseniav586]

I have four different cultivars and not going to stop :D They have a wonderful variety about them, I especially love the pink ones!

[@LaviniaDeMortalium]

gotta lump the Aglaonema into the same group as pothos - not flashy, no fancy, but will always be there for you when all your other fussy plants up and die without rhyme or reason. I stan the Aglaonema's; they've always looked out for me.

[@ardikuncoro699]

My grandmother loves it. My mother loves it. So ... I love "Sri Rezeki" (Agalonema) too. This plant is so easy to care and propagated. I use my compos soil, specially fermented garbage from my kitchen. They love it. But yess It is not easy to care for the new cultivars such as the most most expensive cultivars eg. "Golden Hope" from Mr. Greg Hambali (Father of Agalonema), ect. But I don't know if it can be easy to grow on 4 season lands. Thank you for making this channel always on one step a head for our plants community. You are so inspiring and always make me smile. ----

Such a gorgeous plant and I’m in love with how easy they are to care for.

[@fignewton0000]

How did you know I just got my first aglaonema? :) I found a Maria at a local Home Depot and said "why haven't my feet moved? Am I stunned? Yes. Because this plant is stunning!" I have it in a small corner but 4 feet or so under a grow light

[@sherrylthompson803]

Thanks so much, I needed this so much! I have several Chinese evergreens but the one that I almost lost is my silver bay! It was so pretty when I bought it home, I must have over watered it and now it’s half the size it was when I brought it home. Hope I can keep the rest of it alive and it comes back. A lesson learned!!😊

[@ameliagraham92]

I have avoided these guys because I have spider mites in the trees in my neighborhood. The first year (we lived here) I killed a Diffenbachia by not noticing until too late that we had brought them indoors ( the spider mites ) for winter. Although Neem oil is part of my ongoing routine now I have shied away from plants with big thin leaves. Are they more resilient than fellow aroid Diffenbachia? Well it really wont be a problem in the future. We are moving soon. Hopefully out in rural KY there will be more natural predators for the mites and I won't have to worry about an annual re-infestation when my plants go outside for their summer vacation. Thanks for more brilliant content. You are the best!

[@tiffanyi5645]

Rachel’s Heart Shaped Leaves channel has an amazing video on “how to kill spider mites” and her method works wonders for larger leafed plants like Dieffenbachia and Aglaonema...it was a total game changer for me! Good luck!

I recently went on a trip and in the hotel I stayed at, there was a Silver Bay Ag basically at every corner and floor of the hotel. And it was amazing to see that even though there was mostly artificial lighting, they all looked so lush and healthy. It was really hard for me to not take cuttings lol

[@gwendolynflanagan8823]

Thanks for showing some of the more colorful choices! When I lost my house (in 2018) to fire, all my plant buddies went too, save for the dormant dragon lily. The first two plants I got post fire were a epiphyllum and an aglaonema from a friend who was relocating. So generous! Both were of a pretty good size. The Aglao is in an 8" tapered metal(ish) pot. It has an ideal light source and is very happy overall. We had a large show of flowers this year. Here is my question: What do you think causes those yellowing tips? I see them on your (very healthy) Plants as well. They do seem to occur on the lower leaves only. I do not water often, but I water well and then wait. There are no obvious signs of rot anywhere, and no other blemishing of the leaves. Takk pa forhand! Thanks in advance! Gwen

[@giannahartman9030]

it’s very normal for plants to drop their older lower leaves over time. those leaves get less light as the plant grows bigger, getting shaded by the other leaves.

[@jpsuperstar]

The crystal punch bowl for soil is just amazing

[@StrangeDisposition]

The only aglo I have is the pictum tricolor and it’s my scariest plant. It’s doing okay but it’s my first winter with it. Last growing season it tried flowering 6 times and grew a few leaves but it is currently down to 3 leaves and I want to blame winter and a mealy bug. Hopefully I can make it as happy as yours. Btw yours is the reason I kept pinching the flowers! 💙

[@tiffanyi5645]

Continue to pinch the flowers and put that thing under a cloche! Also try giving it more light, It’s too rare and pricey to lose! Lol

Not aglaonema related but related to plants. I started with plants in July 2020. Yes during this pandemic and I was staying at home. I live in Queens, NY and I have a friend in UK who happened to share same hobby with me (Starbucks collecting). She also started with plants same time with me and she introduced your Channel to me. Since then I watch your channel here and there and went back to some of your videos. Hope to meet you in person here in New York when things get better.

[@foggybottomz]

Mine is suffering (from root rot I think) but I am going to give it TLC since you have shown yours so much love and praise. I wasn't sure if I just bought a dud instead. I have a question. What is the science behind plants tolerating water propagation but not wet feet?

[@andreabrzuska5749]

Same question!

[@albatraozgirl]

I saw a video about this recently. The rot comes from fungus in the soil. Water doesn't have fungus I guess? Too much water can activate spores in the soil. When growing in water, it's recommended to change the water often (weekly I think the video recommended) to keep it fresh and clean.

[@christmassnow3465]

I propagated the striped green variety from stem cuttings. I find the process to be slow, but it was worth propagating from any piece available. The stem cuttings develop very slowly in the heat of summer but that speeds-up in early fall when the heat abates. So did Dieffenbachia cuttings. I find that tip cuttings and plant division give better results.

We have the Silver Queen, Siam Aurora and Doña Carmen in abundance, (maybe Siam Aurora is not the healthiest of the bunch) and I didn't know their name and they just "exist" in our garden until I saw people selling them around. We didn't fertilize, just water sometimes, we actually water the fruit bearing trees and they happen to be underneath so they also get their share.

And yet, I've managed to almost kill 2 this year! They both did great for over a year. Then both got root rot. One, I saved, the other didn't make it so I propagated 2 cuttings and made 2 plants. One is doing o.k. The other, after doing well for 5 months, is now dying - from what I'm not sure. Not overwatering though, since I only water when it starts to droop and it's planted in a cactus mix.
