Chinese Evergreen (Aglaonema 'Pink Dalmatian')

Brief Description

The Aglaonema 'Pink Dalmatian' is a striking cultivar of Chinese Evergreen known for its vibrant foliage. Its large, lance-shaped leaves feature a beautiful variegation of dark green, light green, and creamy white or pale pink specks, often with distinct pink edges, giving it a 'Dalmatian' like appearance. The petiole of the leaves can also show pinkish hues.

Care Instructions

This plant thrives in bright, indirect light but can tolerate lower light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight as it can scorch the leaves. Water thoroughly when the top inch or two of soil feels dry, and allow excess water to drain. Reduce watering in winter. Maintain high humidity, which can be achieved through misting, a pebble tray, or a humidifier. Average room temperatures (65-80°F / 18-27°C) are ideal. Use a well-draining potting mix and fertilize every 2-4 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength. Wipe leaves occasionally to remove dust and support photosynthesis.
