Brief Description

Chinese Evergreen is a popular houseplant known for its attractive foliage and ease of care. It features broad, glossy leaves that can vary in color from deep green to variegated shades with patterns of silver or cream.

Care Instructions

This plant thrives in low to medium light and prefers well-draining soil. Keep it moderately moist, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf burn, and maintain a warm, humid environment for optimal growth.

Medicinal Value

While not widely known for medicinal uses, some species of Aglaonema are believed to have air-purifying properties; however, ingestion is toxic to pets.
