Whether you're an experienced plant enthusiast or just starting your indoor gardening journey, the Red Vein is a must-have for any plant lover.

Care Tips:

1. Lighting: The Aglaonema Red Vein thrives in medium to low indirect light conditions, making it perfect for areas in your home with less natural sunlight. However, it can also adapt to brighter conditions, as long as it's shielded from direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves.

2. Temperature and Humidity: This plant thrives in average room temperatures between 18-27°. It can tolerate slightly cooler temperatures but avoid exposing it to drafts or sudden temperature fluctuations. Maintain a moderate level of humidity by misting the leaves occasionally or placing a tray of water near the plant. This will help mimic its native tropical environment.

3. Watering: Allow the soil of your Aglaonema Red Vein to partially dry out between waterings. It prefers slightly moist soil but is susceptible to root rot if overwatered. Aim to water it when the top inch of the soil feels dry to the touch. During winter, reduce the watering frequency as the plant's growth slows down.

4. Soil and Fertilization: Plant your Red Vein in well-draining soil specifically formulated for houseplants. A mix containing peat moss, perlite, and vermiculite works well. Fertilize your Aglaonema every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced houseplant fertilizer. Dilute the fertilizer according to the package instructions to avoid overfeeding.

5. Pruning and Maintenance: Trim any yellow or damaged leaves regularly to maintain the plant's aesthetic appeal and overall health. Dust the leaves gently with a soft cloth or use a plant-based leaf shine spray to keep them clean and enhance their natural lustre.

6. Propagation: The Aglaonema Red Vein can be propagated through stem cuttings. Take a healthy stem cutting with a few leaves attached, dip the cut end in the rooting hormone, and place it in a moist potting mix. Provide warmth, indirect light, and consistent moisture to encourage successful root development.

Not only is the Aglaonema Red Vein a stunning decorative piece but it is also known for its air-purifying qualities, helping to improve the air quality in your home and create a healthier living environment.
