Aglaonema rotundum (Chinese Evergreen)

This small plant is native to Sumatra, and it is an easy-care plant. It is suitable for the most interiors, with indirect, or semi-shade light. The Aglaonema rotundum (Chinese Evergreen) prefers moderate water, about once a week. The soil should be kept moist, but not wet and do not over water. It does not need high humidity, as damp air can easily cause root rot. You can fertilize Aglaonema rotundum once a month, but be careful not to over-fertilize. The foliage is often variegated, with white and pink marbling, giving the plant an ornamental aspect.

Grown in USDA Zone 9-11, Aglaonema rotundum can be grown successfully in pots in cooler regions. A sunny, warm spot and a light, well-drained soil are ideal for successful cultivation. Pruning is not necessary for Aglaonema rotundum, however, dead or diseased foliage should be removed to allow new leaves to grow.
