    The plant does not like direct sunlight and is best placed in a spot with indirect sunlight. Bright sunlight can cause leaf burn in this plant. It is therefore better to keep the plant out of direct sunlight.

    Yes, the Aglaonema loves warmth and thrives best at a temperature between 18 and 25 degrees Celsius. It is important to keep the plant away from drafts and sudden temperature changes. Make sure the plant is placed in a warm and consistent spot in order to grow well.

    Yes, the Aglaonema is known for its air-purifying properties. This houseplant helps to purify the air in the home by filtering out harmful substances. It is a good choice for a healthier living environment.

  • To keep the plant healthy and beautiful, it may be necessary to remove dead or damaged leaves. Use a sharp pair of scissors or knife to cut the leaves close to the stem. Make sure the plant receives enough water and light after pruning.

    The Aglaonema needs regular watering, but be careful not to let the soil become too wet. Allow the top layer of soil to dry out slightly before watering again. During the winter period, the plant requires less water than in the summer.

    Use a potting mix for Aglaonema that is well-draining and rich in nutrients. Avoid heavy and compact soils, and opt for a light mix that keeps the roots healthy. Watering should be done when the top layer of soil feels dry.

    This plant thrives best at a constant room temperature between 18 and 24 degrees Celsius. Make sure the plant is not exposed to drafts or temperature fluctuations. In the winter period, the plant should not be placed in a location where the temperature drops below 15 degrees Celsius.

    A humidity level of around 50-60% is recommended for optimal growth of this plant. This can be achieved by regularly misting the plant or using a humidifier. A low humidity level can lead to brown leaf edges.

    Houseplants thrive best in a neutral to slightly acidic soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 7.0. It is important to regularly check the acidity of the soil and adjust it if necessary using specific fertilizers. An optimal acidity level ensures that the plant can absorb enough nutrients and grow healthily.
