All you need to know about Aglaonema Chinese Evergreen

Very informative as always 😍 Thank you very much for sharing🙏🏼🕊☮️💚🙋🏻‍♀️

I've watched so many of these videos over the past couple weeks that today, while I was perusing the plant section at a nearby store, even though I didn't know anything about this particular plant yet I was like "Okay, Swedish Plantguys says to look for the one with the most stems, and to check the roots..." 😂 I wound up getting one of these plants, though it's a pale pink variegation and I love it so much! Thank you guys for putting out such great, detailed videos for us. I've learned a ton! <3

I love your videos
I have one of this lovely plants now I know it needs more water
But what about soft stems my plant doesn't stand firmly like these it seems more dull and loose

Question regarding Nursery Cups/Cages/Mesh:

(These are highly debated over from what I've seen. Some people say that they unalive plants, some say they have no effect...)

I rescued a large, drowning, Red Emerald about a year ago. Upon bringing it home, I felt that it was necessary to repot promptly in order to get it out of the soggy soil before the roots were damaged. In the process, I found that the root ball was still very healthy overall-- In fact, the plant had so many roots that any attempt at removing the Nursery Cups around the base of the plant would likely cause even more unnecessary stress and damage than if I left them intact.

Throughout this past year, this is the only Aglaonema in my collection that's given me issues... About once each month, I find a single leaf, (typically towards the bottom) that is absolutely mushy while the rest of the plant seems to be doing just fine.

-I only went up once pot size when I repotted From 10 inches to 12, with the new pot being slightly wider than it is tall. It has drainage holes, and I also use a somewhat barky soil with good drainage.
--I am typically watering infrequently enough to experience occasional yellowing leaves from underwatering, as mentioned in the video. (Once each month or less, although I check the soil moisture frequently.)
--This is the only Aglaonema in my collection to experience this issue, but it's also the only one who still has its Nursery Cups still attached.

So what I'm asking is, is it possible that the Nursery Cups are hurting my Red Emerald, and the mushy leaves is how it's expressing it's discomfort, or am I doing something else wrong? Has anyone else ever had this experience?

Very useful video on aglonema plant care. Will be great if we include plant propagation also as a part in this.

Your videos are fantastic - so much valuable information, rather than the pointless repetitive and largely irrelevant babble found on so many other channels. One minor thing - instead of "wet" cloth, it's better to use the adjective "damp." When you say wet, a native English speaker will associate this with a cloth that is completely soaked through and dripping with water.

There about $20 to $30
In the US for a quality specimen
From a specialist shop
Might get one a big box store
For $15 but find there quality
Not so great

I bought a humidifier for my plants and you can see they respond to it in couple days

If my new leaves are small, 1. Do they continue to grow as they age? And 2. Why is my new growth so small? (2 or 3cm). I want large leaves

Love the info! I was gifted a Silver Queen Chinese ever green 13 yrs ago. It is still living! However, last year I repotted it and tried to propagate bc it became “leggy” 🤦🏾‍♀️. And it suffered big time and I can’t seem to get it to thrive again. Hoping to pick up some tips that can remedy that. Plus, today I purchased an Ivory Jade and am so excited to start seeing it grow like my 1st one did. I’d like to get two more later, but waiting to see how I do with the two I have. Love your videos 👍🏾.

Excellent video! I'm quite experienced with houseplants but never had an Aglaonema. This video gave all the important information!

Very informative about light requirements.

So interessing❤

Very detailed about Aglaonemas 💖 Will be going through more of your plant care videos.

What a lovely video I have ever come across

And how I propagate it? :(

Your videos are awesome with lots of information! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us!

I love aglonema and I don't know how to multiple it , I just have one plant, can anyone tell me how to multiply

How totake care of rubber plant kept indoor

Hi I'm a big fan of yours I have a Dracena that my Mother-in-law gave me for about 30 years and growing in water. It is very tall. I changed it into a large vase and added some pebbles and wine corks. My question, is how can I fertilize the Dracenia growing in water. I appreciate your advice ❤, I also have my plant in front of filter (curtain) southern window.

The only plant info channel worth listening to. So comprehensive and educational. Love this channel. Keep coming back for a refresher course. Thank you guys.

I have a 14year old chinese evergreen that has lost it perkiness and leaves are not beight and shiny anymore. Dont know if I should just repot or if i should cut to propagate. Any advice will help.

Lovely collection

Thank you for great video... I have a small problem with my aglonema: It always looses the bottom leaf before growing a leaf on top. Not sure what is wrong ? Bottom leaf turns yellow the falls off .

Silver Bay.

What an amazing video. I wish I would have found it years ago. We have two plants that have been in the home for decades. Accidentally left them out overnight earlier this year and I’ve been struggling to bring it back. New leaves are coming in strong but plant is shrinking. Replanting coming up but it may be on its way out.

Question: Does this plant have a unique smell?

Thanks so much for saving my plant ❤

It works also as pure hydroculture plant

Thank you so much!! You were very thorough and answered all my questions!

Older video but it took me years to learn what my plant was called!! I just let it grow and it is humongous!!! I love it and now I want more. I have learned how to propogate the plant, so I will be trying that soon. I got it from my mother years ago when it was tiny. She passed on in 2015 so I do all I can to keep it. Along with many other plants she shared with me ❤

Really appreciative! Great info (for a plant I keep making suffer - so sad)! Think I've got it now. :)

Thanks for a great video which is so full of useful information. I learn more from you than anywhere else.

Thank you. Okay 'more light more light'.

Meaning lighter coloured leaves need more light.

The Aglaonema Ivy Green and Silver Bay are beautiful ❤️

Wow, the most informative, well-spoken tutorial I have had the pleasure to watch. Great job, thanks for the info.

Excellent video!!thank you!!

I have a doubt. The Ivory Jade plant is Aglaonema or Dieffenbachia plant?

Your plants looks stunning 🤩😍

China

Super very good information

I just purchased my first Aglaonema Rainbow.. I put it nearby window facing north. I have grow lights to help with lighting, how long should I set timer on lights 3, 9, 12hrs?

Please do a Dieffenbachia video like this one!!!

Great information as always guys ,, any chance of a diffenbachia video

Is that a Maria in the bottom left of the frame ?🥺 she got left out 🥺

Here in 2025!

🌹🌹🌹🌹!!!! very informative.
