Watering

Press a finger an inch or two into the soil. When it feels dry at that depth, give a modest, measured amount of room-temperature water, enough to moisten the root ball, never a flood. The sealed planter keeps your floors dry, so a little at a time is always the better choice. In winter, when growth slows, water less often.

Why red aglaonema brightens a room

Chinese evergreen (Aglaonema) was among the plants tested in NASA's 1989 Clean Air Study and is known for tolerating low light. Red-leaf hybrids add warm color, and they hold it best where the sun reaches the room but not the leaves.

FAQ

Where should I place it? In bright, indirect light, where the sun lights the room but doesn't touch the leaves.

Is it pet-safe? No. The ASPCA lists aglaonema as toxic to cats and dogs.

How tall is it? Foliage stands about 12"–16" above the planter.
