How to care for an Aglaonema Flamingo

Watering the Aglaonema Flamingo

Water the Aglaonema Flamingo regularly, but avoid allowing it to sit in soggy soil. Allow the top centimeter of potting soil to dry slightly between waterings. Preferably use filtered or lukewarm tap water, and remove excess water from the saucer after watering.

Light requirements of the Aglaonema Flamingo

The Aglaonema Flamingo thrives in a spot with indirect light. Direct sunlight can fade the pink leaf markings and cause burn marks. A bright room without bright sunlight is ideal for healthy growth. Feel free to place it next to an east- or west-facing window for even light.

Common problems with Aglaonema Flamingo

Yellow leaves

Yellow leaves can indicate overwatering or insufficient light. Check the moisture content of the potting soil and adjust your watering schedule. If necessary, move the plant to a brighter location, or read more about what to do about root rot in your houseplants.

Plant drips

If water droplets appear on the leaves, the plant is experiencing aerial rooting or moisture deposition. This is usually nothing to worry about; simply removing excess moisture with a soft cloth is sufficient. Ensure good air circulation to prevent mold growth.

Pests

Spider mites and mealybugs can hide in the leaf axils. Check regularly for small webs or white, fluffy material. For early infestations, a plant sprayer or sticky traps for fungus gnats can help; for severe infestations, consider using natural pesticides.

Roots growing out of the bottom of the pot

When the roots are visibly growing under the pot, it's time to repot. Choose a pot only one size larger and use an airy potting mix for aroids. You can find a step-by-step guide on our potting mix for aroids page.

Brown edges on the leaf margin

Brown leaf edges are often caused by low humidity or areas that are too cold. Increase the humidity by placing a bowl of water nearby or using a plant mister. Avoid placing the Aglaonema Flamingo next to a drafty window or doorway.
